    Tracking down serious damp is not easy - it can come from several sources. Dampcourse - porous bricks - leaks from plumbing etc.

    If mould is growing, it needs sorting quickly. You don't want children sleeping in rooms with mold spores.
  • I got a dehumidifier on freecycle might be worth a quick wanted notice on there, they are just the sort of appliance that people have knocking about unused in their garage!

    I used to have a one bar electric fire on the bathroom wall above the bath and it could be switched off and on while in the bath and I am still here.

    What did we do before the H & S nazis were let loose?
