What is condensation?
Condensation happens when warm air meets cold surfaces and manifests in several ways: in water droplets on windows or other cold surfaces, black mould on the walls – specifically in cold corners and cupboards – and blue/green mould on leather or wood. The water that collects on the surface
is more evident in areas where thereis little air movement as the surface does not get the chance todry out.Over a period of time, this can leave you with black, foul-smelling mould, which can contribute to many health problems, including asthma.
What causes condensation?
Condensation can often manifest in areas such as windows, walls, above skirting boards and in the corners of rooms, particularly at floor and ceiling height. There are several reasons why condensation forms including:
- Poor ventilation.
- Poor heating.
- Drying clothes.
- Cooking heat.
- Bathing.
- And more.
How is condensation treated?
Our condensation treatment has been refined into three simple steps. Here’s how we do it…

How do I stop condensation from forming?
Once we have treated your condensation problem, there are a variety of things that you can do to stop it from returning including:
Produce Less Moisture
Taking care to produce less moisture in your home is key to reducing condensation. We recommend that:
o You don’t dry clothes on the radiator. If you do, open windows and ensure lots of ventilation.
o Cover any pans when cooking, use your extractor fan and open windows where possible.
o Make sure that there is adequate ventilation when using your tumble dryer.
Increase Ventilation
Ventilation is essential in removing excess moisture generated by cooking, drying clothes and more. With our professional installations such as vents and loft units, we can keep air moving freely around your property.
Proper Insulation
Proper insulation is an effective deterrent for condensation. Adding secondary glazing, our thermal-lined wall installation and proper loft insulation can make all the difference to your condensation issues.
Heating In The Home
Combating condensation can be as simple as heating your home a little more. Keeping your heating on ‘low’ for longer periods (as opposed to ‘high’ for short periods) can stop walls from becoming too cold.
