Hi all.
Straight to the point...
I had a 7x4m workshop built in the summer and the inside ceiling is now covered n moisture. The construction is dense block on outside 70mm colotex insulation then thermalite block for inner skin. The base is concrete and had a dpm underneath it before being poured. The roof is a flat roof which has got three layers of torch in felt. This was all done by a pro builder/ carpenter and roofer. I spoke to builder today who says it’s condesation due to ventilation and he may have to put soffit vents in rear to allow air to circulate. Apparently this may not work either. The OSB board ceiling has droplets forming everywhere and the timbers have damp and mould forming. See photos for explanation please.
Apparently this is my fault as I asked for the building to be sealed from draughts!.any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks
