Hi, we moved into our house last march and noticed the sealants around the windows in the bedrooms to be black and mould spores on the frames. Since coming into winter the condsenation has became worse,damp appearing in the corners of the bedrooms and mould spores appearing on the ceiling. Our windows don't have any vents( approx 15 years old) and our bathroom does not have an extractor but we make sure to open the window. I have started to leave our bedroom door open at night also to prevent more condensation. Do you think the problem is just condensation or another cause? Also would it be beneficial to get new windows installed? Also I have noticed the old wooden window sills are under the UPC ones! Thanks for any help
