Introduction
Damp and mould are common problems in homes across Ireland, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and poorly ventilated rooms. If left untreated, mould can damage walls, ruin paint finishes, and affect indoor air quality.In this guide, we explain how professional damp treatment, mould removal, and repainting can restore your walls and protect your home long-term.
What Causes Damp and Black Mould on Walls?
Damp and mould usually develop due to:
- Poor ventilation
- High humidity levels
- Water leaks or condensation
- Inadequate insulation
- Old or damaged paint finishes
Black mould often appears as dark patches on walls or ceilings and can spread quickly if not treated correctly.
Why Simple Painting Is Not Enough
Many homeowners repaint over mould, but this is only a temporary solution. Without proper treatment:
- Mould will return within weeks
- Paint will peel or stain
- Moisture remains trapped inside the wall
Professional damp treatment focuses on eliminating the root cause, not just covering the problem.
