Preventing and treating damp and mould in the home

Damp and mould in a home is unsightly and can be a sign that the property is too wet and is not being heated and ventilated correctly. According to Rhentu Doeth Cymru / Rent Smart Wales (RSW) the average household can produce 112 pints of moisture per week through cooking, bathing and breathing with moisture levels increasing if damp clothing is dried inside the home.
 
Condensation and mould growth occurs when water vapour in the air inside a property condenses on a cold surface. Condensation can occur on windows, walls, tiled areas, toilet cisterns and even in a tightly packed wardrobe. If you are a home owner or a contract holder living in a rented property, this handy guide by RSW will assist you in tackling and managing the issue in your home.
