Seeking a Recommendation for a mould/condensation specialist.

OK, I don't know the extent of your problem. But do first try own remedies because specialist will be x10 cost or more.


My mould was fixed 1. by trip to our outstanding Dulwich DIY. They have a specialist spray (about ?7 a bottle, not cheap) which kills mould and it doesn't come back for a while. You will need several bottles and perhaps a face mask. 2. I had then to repaint wall where mould was growing (damp coming in from outside) with anti-moisture foundation, then mould resistant undercoat, then paint (they advise what). This with a de-humidifier should do the trick unless you have rising damp. Total cost a great deal less than any specialist visit, and quite satisfying to do.


If you see any mould (like little dark spots or bubbles in paint) subsequently, it needs to be sprayed immediately. The mould is quite dangerous to health if not treated.

Hi I'm a damp proofer , with mould and condensation the problem will be either lack of air flow , or the wall where the mould is showing is very cold , if that's the case then you need to have the wall insulated from the inside or hack of the infected area and waterproof sand and cement ,if you want me to pop over and have a look give me a call Dave 07932505589

    • I have someone from Which Tech phoning on Monday afternoon. I couldn't get an earlier appointment. I am hoping that now there is a visible display, they will be able to get me online and then  remotely control the laptop and identify what went wrong and whether it is an ongoing fault or, if not, whether it is likely to recur. If they can't, or if they identify a hardware fault,  I will have to grit my teeth and let John Lewis's third party "repair" company take it away and deal with it 😭 I'm very grateful for your advice, but when I saw "Windows will restart automatically" my immediate reaction was to think "but suppose it doesn't" and "suppose the screen goes black again" which I know is very negative but I'd rather someone else was there when I did it, albeit on the end of the phone! Meanwhile, every cloud etc, as I have installed Word on my phone, which I didn't know was possible, and I have been editing and printing documents from there.  I haven't investigated whether I can do the same with Excel, but I will see what happens on Monday.
