If you are worried about condensation problems in Horwich, speak to the experts and have it seen to.  Condensation often comes from water vapour within the building. This can be caused by many different sources including cooking, bathing, dishwashing machines and humid air. The moisture in the air condenses on cold surfaces sometimes inside the walls. This is called interstitial condensation and is found in buildings with poorly insulated walls. It often causes damage similar to damp and frequently in the same places. One of the reasons for this is that it tends to occur in areas in the building that do not have very good air circulation. There are a few ways to combat this problem like opening windows to allow air to circulate, running a dehumidifier to suck the water out of the air or increasing the heating in the property. This is however inconvenient and expensive.

If you find mould growing anywhere in your home you may have a problem. In Horwich, condensation problems can lead to damage to plaster and timber. In some cases you may see beads of water on windows and walls. This generally happens when it is warm inside by very cold outside. This provides the ideal growing conditions for black and green mould which is noticeable by the damp and musty smell it gives off. This problem is most commonly found in kitchens and bathrooms. We can install condensation control units that produce fresh filtered air to replace the warm moist air and prevent water vapour from forming. The pressure inside the building is slightly raised driving out the moist air.
