Condensation can be a perennial problem, given the UK’s damp weather conditions. In Sharples, condensation problems can occur in any kind of construction – whether you live in a listed building, stately home, country cottage or apartment block. If you’ve noticed condensation on your windows and walls, it won’t be long before you also notice patches of mould and fungus. If condensation is not immediately dealt with, it can result in the development of fungi that not just looks unsightly, but is also a major health hazard. Respiratory problems, asthma, arthritis, colds and coughs, and pneumonia are some of the results. Condensation occurs when warm air meets cold surfaces or there is high humidity inside the building. It’s common in winter, especially in the mornings and evenings, when central heating systems come on.

Daily activities like cooking, bathing, washing and drying clothes also contribute to condensation problems in Sharples. This is not an issue in summer, when we leave doors and windows open. In winter, we turn up the indoor-heating and shut windows or doors, causing warm air to be trapped inside. When it meets the cold surfaces of windows/doors exposed to cold, outside air, water-droplets form. If not dealt with immediately, you find  streams running down walls, and puddles on the floor. These stagnate and encourage growth of mould, and endanger the safety of your building. Contact Ascot Damp Proofing if you are experiencing condensation problems. We can conduct the necessary surveys, damp-proofing and water-proofing to protect your building and occupants.
