Hi
My flat used to have a balcony which has since been made part of the kitchen. The wall is single brick and gets crazy amounts of condensation on it in winter.
Ideally I would like to put free standing shelves up against the wall but don't want to do this until I can reduce the amount of condensation and mould buildup.
What would people recommend to fix the issue? Currently the wall is painted with (what looks and feels like) bathroom paint. I've read people using polystyrene lining paper (e.g. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Insulating-Polystyrene-Lining-Paper-Wallpaper/dp/B006UFLBIO) or adding internal boards (e.g. http://www.fermacell.co.uk/en/content/walls___ceilings_1214.php).
The problem walls all have double glazing so any solution would have to work with the windows.
Thanks in advance.
