Do you want to get rid of dampness in walls? We give you some convenient tips.

Causes of dampness in walls and on ceilings

Moulds love a damp and warm environment with little ventilation, such as the bathroom. Water vapour is released during showering or when you take a bath. If the room is poorly ventilated, the vapour will condensate. Condensation is small water droplets that stick to colder surfaces. For example, the mirror, the wall or the ceiling. If the damp does not leave those surfaces, you end up with damp patches and condensation on the walls. 

So mould, damp and mildew stains are often on the wall or the ceiling, because those are a little rougher and more permeable. As soon as you have mould, it is important to remove it. Moulds are bad for your health.
