Over the counter mould cleaners usually contain chlorides. These chlorides create salt contamination of wall plaster stay away. Use white vinager solution. Also mould will not grown on contamiated wall plaster from rising damp as u suggested, this will hold chlorides and nitrates from the ground. Mould grows exclusively in clean water sources.

Glad it was helpful!

Superb helpful advice

What a lot of people do not realise is that with an extract fan pulling air out of any room you need to have the same amount of air to replace it, ie, a form of ventilation, window, open door. This will create a negative pressure in the room and prevent odours or steam spreading round your house. Usually a 15 to 20 minute over run is beneficial once you have finished what ever you are doing. Our cooker hood is on low setting most of the time actually and we have the log burner floor vent or usually a small bedroom window cracked open, keeps fresh air trickling through the house.

i live in a 1 bed studio apartment and i have got mould in my front room and bedroom a lot of draft from both sides of the properties , and whoever i put the heating on it’s good but when i turn it off because of the draft it just goes back to being cold again after about an hour or so

Very informative and well presented, however the advice on the containers with the crystals will only help drain your wallet so save time and money and purchase a dehumidifier with a laundry mode especially if your a tenant as you will struggle more than most with mould issues due to bad landlords. Things are changing very slowly regarding regulations mainly due to the death of Awaab Ishak.

Hi, most helpful in all the risks in the home. We have it in two rooms, which I think, are very cluttered and there's no space in and around the furniture. I presume this can be a big factor? Also, the paint that can be used, is there a recommended tin?

Yes I think so as air flow is helpful and the more clutter there is the more places the more surfaces there are for mould to grow on.

Well done Georgina. This is a brilliant, straightforward, and simple explanation of the causes and remedies of condensation damp. Your explanations avoid making the "perpetrator" feel blamed. I shall share this video with my housing association colleagues. On another note: The only thing that I have an issue with; is the Chelsea training top which is contaminating your drying rack! I'm sure you will agree that no right thinking person would want to see something like this lurking in their home? Have you tried a strong bleach to kill off these types of unwanted irritants? Maybe fire is the answer? :)

@@GeorginaBisbyDIY yes. Does what it says on the tin..is recommended by the NRLA too. I've reviewed it. Also been using it today.

Should you open the windows in the winter? Does that not let moisture in?

It depends on the humidity levels outside but in general air circulation helps

Cold air carries less moisture.

Great video ...but mold is a livng thing and it is embedded in cracks and crevices and these products must kill all mold or it will come back..most do not work .......but its worth trying ....ALSO you have to stop the source of water? leak ? gutterings blocked? taps ? The source is an easy fix

Only 490k subscribers to go to catch up on daddy lol

Where are the remedies ? nothing but causes, only granules , made sure you saved the container around.

Fact is once you have mould you can’t get rid of it. It will always come back except if you get someone Professional looking at it or smash down the wall.
