Hi Is there anyone out there who has experienced damp in their apartment and have any advice on their own experiences---our appeared in the summer and is steadily getting worse! we cannot get replies from anyone who should be dealing with it --we were not planning to visit until next summer so dealing with it at a distance is stressful , although friends on site are very supportive.jw

Whereabouts have you bought? It would help others in your area to help you.

There were issues with damp on one of the developments in Vera, but they were usually limited to ground floor property where the lawn sprinklers were badly adjusted. Do you have a keyholder to regularly air your property?

You need to determine the source of the damp i.e rising, penatrative or humidity damp. The majority of problems relate to humidity damp and the only way to solve that is to increase ventilation.

I control tha damp in my apartment by leaving a dehumidifier on whilst the property is unoccupied. The water collected drains directly into the shower tray and avoids the need for anyone to empty the collection container.
