Condensation control services in Hartley Wintney

Condensation is a common problem for homes throughout the UK, often because of the home construction methods, the climate and how we use our homes. Homes need to be able to breathe, or the air inside becomes moist and humid. If this moisture cannot escape, the air will eventually reach saturation point and the moisture will settle on cold surfaces. This would typically be your windows and exterior walls. 

This cycle of repeated evaporation and condensation can cause damage to your decor and also provide the perfect conditions for mould to thrive. Mould can become a health hazard to residents, leading to skin irritation and breathing problems. Another common issue in homes with condensation problems is that they are much harder to heat. A damp home will not stay warm, so your thermostat might be inching up but you won’t enjoy a boost in comfort levels.

Common signs you have a condensation problem

Not sure if you’re dealing with a condensation problem or if you have normal levels of moisture? If you’ve been living with it for a long time, it can be hard to spot when things become problematic. Here are some signs to look out for:

  • Water droplets on your windows and walls that feel damp to the touch
  • Mould and mildew patches on your walls and ceiling
  • Energy bills increasing without an increase in comfort levels
  • Peeling wallpaper and flaky paintwork

If you’ve spotted any of these signs, it’s important that you seek help from a condensation expert. There could be an underlying issue that needs to be addressed.

We can help tackle your condensation problem in Hartley Wintney

Tackling a condensation problem is all about finding the source. We can address the symptoms in the short-term, but you can find long-term relief if you know why there is excess moisture in your home. The first step is to rule out a more serious structural issue, such as rising damp or a concealed plumbing leak. If the issue is not structural, then we can assume that ventilation is the issue. Poor ventilation in a home will cause moisture to become trapped inside.

Improving ventilation usually starts with looking for structural reasons that your walls don’t breathe as they should. This could be down to plastering or rendering. Blocking ventilation bricks and trickle vents can also cause issues. We might look at adding extractor fans in the kitchen and bathroom, or we might suggest using a dehumidifier if you plan to dry clothing indoors. All solutions will be completely bespoke to you and your property.
