Expert Basement, Foundation & Crawlspace Waterproofing Contractors in Stafford

Condensation Findings: Our latest survey shows evidence of the black spot mould located on the wall & ceiling surfaces within the various rooms. This mould growth is consistent with high levels of atmospheric moisture being present within the property. CONDENSATION IN THE HOME Condensation is caused when water vapour comes in contact with cold surfaces and condenses to form dampness or water droplets. Air can contain varying amounts of water vapour; the amount of water vapour contained in air is related to air temperature, hence the term "relative humidity"; warm air can hold more water vapour than cold air. When warm air comes into contact with a colder surface, it cools down and can't retain the same amount of water vapour. The excess water vapour is released and forms condensation. Water vapour is invisible in air and is formed when you carry out normal daily activities in the home such as boiling kettles, cooking, drying clothes, pets, the use of non-flued heating and even breathing. It can also occur in a new home because building materials, such as mortars and plaster contain a large amount of water. Air within the living environment becomes saturated with water vapour. When these conditions prevail the air inside the property becomes saturated. Company Registration Number 10559369...
