Enjoy your delusion!

I have used storm dry on the outside bricks which let them breath for 25 years as well as stopping ingress.

As does a log burner. Absolutely no fumes from ours. "All Clock stoves not only meet, but beat, industry regulations for performance and lower emissions"

Exactly. You are keeping the air flowing to some extent. It's a bit like those mega expensive extractors people have fitted in their loft

"Significantly shorten your life" ? More chance of traffic pollution doing that. Sorry but that is utter cobblers! Especially if you believe the net zero con by the likes of Ed Miller-bland and his band of nutters. How did my great grandparents all live into their late 80s with open coal fires...

All rooms are well into the 70s in moisture here as even running the dehumidifier to get down the at bes the mid 50s doesn't last long until it goes up again. If the humidity outside is high its impossible to stop it affecting household moisture, even with double glazing. I don't know how you do it.

Like I said, it gets ventilated and always have the dehumidifier running when showering/bath and afterwards I open the bathroom window. Not sure what "poor lifestyle choices" is referring to.

Well, despite using THERMAL paste with INSULATED wallpaper, various mini dehumidifiers including a special Lakeland coat hanger that catches water in crystals, opening the bedroom window in the day slightly and having an electric dehumidifier and air filter that has some airflow this mold...

I would say it's about 40ft long

I just looked them up and I got "Yes, Howdens manufactures most of its kitchen components, including the majority of its cabinet carcasses (rigid cabinets), in its UK factories"

Howdens. Haven't had any follow up since the purchase was made and a reluctant offer of replacement only after complaining..

I could put that to them but now I have repaired it that would be a tad embarrassing if they demanded to inspect before parting with the money.

Yes it's a 2 part sealant and adhesive. Thanks for the compliment on the job btw

If it gives me any more problems after my repair I may do that but the company only offered me (eventually) the replacement for the worktop alone and I would have to source my own fitter. The upheaval and cost of that is not worth the effort at the moment, but like I said, I will try and take it...

No as the colourful acts as a glue too.

Ok, I clamped it down hard for a few days which actually reduced the gap. Then I filled and finished with Colourfill. Pretty happy with results for a novice.

I just can't believe the fight I am having DESPITE the electric dehumidifier, having the window slightly open as much as possible and other disposable dehumidifiers dotted around and black mold is starting to appear and the paper feels damp. NO water coming from outside and the air is dry. The...
