Hop someone can help.
Have a problem with a brick mid terrace house, its seems when the weather starts to get cold, black mouldy patches appear throughout the property, in the kitchen on walls that join the house next door in the bedrooms, its really bad, the walls feel damp but with it being wurse in the winter months I was thinking it could be down to condensation as the roof looks ok but in the loft area there is damp on the insulation but I have put this down to the extractor fan in the bathroom being vented into the loft space
The damp on the walls that join next door is about 2 foot from the floor so I dont think its rising damp. I am told that all the houses in the row have the same problem in the same areas.
Anyone got any ideas????????? I was thinking that some air bricks might be the answer but where would I put them and how many would I put in?
Thanks
