Professional Damage Restoration Services in Grimsby

What are the health implications of living with damp? 🤔 Damp is essentially moisture which shouldn’t be there. It leads to mould spores in your home or property, and it’s at this point that damp becomes dangerous. Allergies Mould spores which are inhaled will agitate the nose, eyes and throat. The Impact: This may result in a mild bout of sneezing or it could cause a more serious allergic reaction which begins to shut down the respiratory system. Skin Irritation Contact with mould spores from damp can cause itchiness and will no doubt exacerbate those living with eczema. The Impact: From a subtle itch with seemingly no cause to unbearable skin irritation, the impact depends on how susceptible and sensitive your skin is to irritation. Toxicity Where there is an issue with damp and condensation, the mould spores can create toxic substances dangerous to humans and animals. The Impact: It’s believed the impact of toxic mould could be wide-ranging. The poisonous substance has been said to have an impact both neurologically as well as internally with the immune system and gastrointestinal system – this is usually caused by a very extreme case of damp.
