Got you, thanks

Feeling stupid now sorry - I meant vents

Sorry to be daft - who would put flues in? A builder or damp specialist? Is it expensive do you know?

Thanks - that makes sense as we have had the roof checked and chimneys capped. Do we need to vent it too?

Thanks -.really helpful

Thanks - makes sense

Good idea. Thanks for your time - really helpful

Huge thanks this is really helpful. It’s probably been there ages as they blocked but didn’t vent the chimney back in 2002 ish. We have just repainted ( over egg shell) so I wonder if that was hiding it.

Any ideas what is causing this wet/damp patches in our lounge and dining room please? It’s a 3 bed 1930s semi. This is all downstairs. 3 patches are either side of chimney breasts but one is on the floor near where a door has been blocked. They fade completely in hot weather but come back...
