Why is condensation an issue for properties?
Mould growth
Mould growth
Condensation provides the damp conditions that mould requires to thrive. Not only is this unsightly, but it leads to poorer air quality and unpleasant odours. Concerningly, it can cause respiratory issues and allergies, especially for people with pre-existing respiratory issues or compromised immune systems.
Damage
Damage
Most building materials struggle to cope with unwanted moisture, leading to damage that requires costly and disruptive repairs. Timber can warp and swell, plaster can crack, and metal fixtures can rust or corrode. Decorative finishes such as paint and wallpaper will also tend to bubble or peel.
Reduced energy efficiency
Reduced energy efficiency
An indirect and often overlooked cost of condensation is increased energy bills. Property owners rely on their central heating systems to combat cold air, unaware that they’re often fighting an uphill battle against structural issues like poor insulation. This results in much higher energy consumption and little to show for it.
What causes condensation?
By visiting your property and carrying out a thorough inspection, we’ll be able to advise you on the best approach to take. We’re experts at finding the root cause of damp issues, carrying out lasting repair work, and preventing their recurrence.
Humidity
High humidity means that there is excess moisture in the air that can accumulate within the property.
Ventilation
Failing to adequately ventilate a property prevents any unwanted moisture from escaping and ensures it remains trapped.
Heating
Underheating a property creates an abundance of cold surfaces that allow condensation to form.
Poor insulation
Poor insulation can create cold spots for condensation on walls, ceilings, and windows.
Structural issues
Blocked air bricks or a bridged damp proof course will trap moisture inside a property.
Bad habits
Drying clothes inside, leaving windows shut, or blocking air vents can exacerbate these other factors.
