Just fell across this forum and from what I've seen it looks to be pretty comprehensive.
I have noticed a few patches of mould appearing on the ceiling/wall joins in some of the rooms of the bungalow I'm living in. I am guessing they are something to do with either cold bridging or condensation build up as the place it watertight, no holes/leaks in the roofspace.
A while ago I fitted an extractor fan into the ensuite (one of the rooms, in fact the worst room, for the mould is the main bedroom) thinking that the problem was just a buildup of condensation from the shower. I now want to look into the possibilty that the problem is with cold bridging.
Could anyone give me any ideas as to what can be done to find/remove the problem. I've checked in the roofspace and from what I can see everything seems to be ok but then I'm not really too sure as to what I should be looking for as to the cause of the cold bridge.
Any advice would be most gratefully received.
Thanks in advance...
