Tackling damp and mould and protecting your home from condensation

Condensation is when water vapour is trapped within the air condenses on to a cooler surface. It then changes from a gas to liquid and causes moisture to appear on the surface. If this continues over a period of time and does not dry out, it encourages mould.

There are some simple tips you can follow to prevent condensation in your home that can lead to damp and mould issues.
