Damp, mould and condensation
Overview
There are different types of dampness that may affect your home, including:
- Rising damp
- Damp patches (penetrating damp)
- Leaks from plumbing
- Construction damp
- Condensation and mould
Condensation can be the biggest cause of damp in homes. Condensation may be made worse if the other types of dampness are also present.
The information on these pages should help you to identify the various types of dampness and reduce condensation as well as treat the mould growth often associated with it.
