It is when painted with weathershield.

It's not from underneath, it's coming from higher up. You can see where water has trickled down. If it were from the ground up the whole shed would be affected. It's sitting on concrete flags.

Well I absolutely cannot fathom how water is getting into the inside of my potting shed which has been painted on the outside with Dulux Weathershield with no visible way on the outside where it is getting in. The very bottom of the tongue and groove piece is soft to the touch which again...

No, I managed to flatten the bumps with clamps for a few days and then filled. I feared clamping after filling would squeeze out excess that would set hard as I have to use wooden blocks with the clamps.

But it says on the pack it is a filler and glue

Perhaps I should have used more colourfill and pushed it in more

Well I'm absolutely gutted. Just in the last day or so after weeks of holding it's lifting again. So the Colourfill so called glue and sealent doesn't work after all.

Our cooker backs onto an adjoining wall so a huge job to send a pipe through the other side. The last hood was just a filter, not an extractor as such.

Keeping the bathroom door shut while in use and then opening the window contains it until evapouration is even cheaper which I now do. Fitting an extractor fan is expensive and an eyesore. We had an extractor hood on our old kitchen we inherited after moving in and it did zilch. Again, keep pan...

If money was no object I would have the dehumidifier running in the room all the time as well as central heating on a thermostat but I just can't afford it.

Not in the bathroom

The house isn't full of mould, just patches.

I have just been in my bathroom after it being full of steam having had the window open for an hour. Now completely dry and it's cold outside.

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.
