What the work involves
Heating patterns, insulation gaps and cold bridges matter too, and some damp is not condensation at all: leaks, penetrating damp and rising damp need different trades. We tell you if that is what we find rather than selling a fan that will not help.
Whole-home ventilation
PIV, continuous extract or MVHR where moisture is spread through the house.
Mould treatment advice
How to clean and treat affected areas once the cause is fixed.

What is the price of a condensation fix in Nelson?
Guide prices for Nelson use North West rates: new ducted fan to outside through the loft or ceiling (insulated duct, roof or soffit outlet) is typically £425 to £700 inc VAT per fan. We confirm a fixed price in writing before any work starts.
Is black mould dangerous?
Damp and mould can affect health, particularly for people with asthma, allergies, weak immune systems, children and older people, according to NHS and government guidance. It should be dealt with rather than lived with.
Is PIV or MVHR better for condensation?
