Yeah it's supplied from the pipes behind. We have a road behind our house (very small courtyard size garden) so mains comes from there.

Mains pipe is supplied from our back into our kitchen which supplies the rest of the house. No water supply from front.

We try to keep it maintained around that as much as possible but sometimes it does go over 60

You talking about old pipes that aren't in use any more? Water supply comes in from our kitchen and we use to have old CH pipes under the ground but they were made redundant and they all run above ground now. The floor was tested for moisture last year and it passed as dry

From pipes? Because we have no pipes under the floor

Humidity on our dehumidifier is showing roughly 55 in the area which I believe should be an okay reading

No dog, I do have a cat but I think the smell of a cat urinating on my wall would stink! No smell though

Nothing in the loft straight above

I wondering if cutting down those metal beads would help in some way... worth a try I guess. No appliances like that near these walls for me though.

only thing I could think of would be CH pipes but theres no leak, boiler hasn't lost any pressure. Floor next to it is concrete/screed and thats bone dry :unsure:

I can't work this out but we seem to have what seems to be damp on an internal wall corner between our living room and dining room. It's no where else in the house so I can't work out why there would be damp here. The wall used to divide two rooms but in the past was knocked through to open up...

So I think it might be connected to the fan isolator switch? I honestly don't know exactly. I won't do anything until it's all investigated

I think the blue wire with the brown sleeve does go into the little connector...

Do to have any test kit? Unfortunately not! Are 2 earth wires in the sleeve or one? I think just one? Does the fan run on (continue running for a while after the light is switched off? Yeah it's on a timer. Runs for about 15 mins after it's off. What is the other wire in the pic? That's just...

Ah okay, so I could just add a new extra earth in the same little block and fly to the switch plate? Any reason why it's currently wired the way it is? Most switches I've seen tend to have the earth connected to the switch plate or backing box
