Strong musty smell - what to do next?

what's the humidity percent in the room? I have a hygrometer pretty much in every room and I have a dehumidifier that kicks in daily to get rid of any damp air...

you can buy one yourself online - or a cheap one from Toolstation

Yes they did check with a damp meter, they said all readings were in the normal range.

It could be a leaky radiator pipe under floor - is your boiler pressure still good ?

As a poster above says , measure humidity of each room is a good idea

have they seen any mice droppings around, could be a dead mouse under floorboards, as tis the season again , when people are suffering from these vermin

Boiler pressure is fine yes.

Definitely not a dead mouse - we have cats and so know the smell of a dead mouse a mile off!
