Damp Proofing

White fluffy mould

Anonymous user 03/03/2024 - 2.57 PM

We have a very old terrace and under the front window and side wall we have something growing on the walls. It is white and fluffy. You can wipe it away, but it keeps coming back. Any ideas? The house is near the seaside, I don't know if that is relevant?

Are you a tradesperson and able to answer this question?

Hi there It could be a type of mould caused by condensation you would need to use an anti fungal solution on the area to stop it growing ask at your local specialist decorating specialists , or maybe efflorescent salts would need to see . but does sound more like a condensation problem being fluffy as the salts are more crystalised regards Joseph
