This is not the first Mould thread I know, but it's a slightly different query (I hope).
Renovating a property with a mould / mildew issue on a few north and east facing interior walls.
It's relatively minor, caused mainly by cold walls and a lack of ventilation / circulation. Condensation, but nothing horrendous.
I know of the Zinsser way of using BIN then Perma-White. That seems to be most people's suggestion, and the catch all solution.
I just wonder if it is best to do that, or to use something which tackles the cause more directly?
If it's lack of ventilation etc I have been wondering if the answer is breathable materials like Earthbourn clay paints and Lime plaster etc.
I've also looked at SURETHERM, which claims to prevents the walls from getting as cold.
I just wondered which would be a better way of approaching the issue.
Also, what's the finish like on the Zinsser Perma-white when tinted?
