Advice greatly appreciated. Bought first home and discovered thick black mould behind all the kitchen cabinets (outside walls only). Had a full kitchen refit, removed the mould and reskimmed all walls. Just months later the mould is back, building up at the back of our brand new kitchen cabinets. We are certain this is because of condensation. It’s an old house and mould is only forming on those on the outside walls. So, is it possible to add insulation beneath and behind the kitchen cabinets without removing the kitchen? I feel this is our best option for sorting the issue currently. It’s a very cold room in general but we are still getting mould build up in summer! We would certainly approach differently next time but it comes with being first time home owners with no renovation experience and having to rush the job! Thanks so much.
