Causes of moisture on windows
Vocht op uw raam kan verschillende oorzaken hebben. De meest voorkomende zijn onvoldoende ventilatie, temperatuurverschillen, lekkages en slechte isolatie.
Insufficient ventilation
Lack of proper ventilation allows humid air to accumulate in the home, especially in rooms like the bathroom, kitchen, or bedroom. This often results in condensation on windows as the humidity levels rise.
Temperature differences
Significant temperature differences between indoors and outdoors often cause condensation on cold glass. This happens when warm, humid indoor air meets the cold surface of the window, leading to moisture settling on the glass.
Leaks
Leaks around windows, such as worn-out seals or poorly finished joints, allow water from outside to seep inside. This water creates moisture spots on the windows or surrounding areas, such as the windowsill.
Poor isolation
Windows with inadequate insulation fail to retain indoor warmth, leaving the glass colder. This cold surface attracts moisture, leading to condensation and water spots.
The consequences
Moisture spots on your windows can have significant effects. They not only harm the appearance of your home but may also lead to potential health issues.
Mould
Moisture spots on windows create an ideal environment for mould growth. Mould spreads easily and can damage both the windows and nearby surfaces.
This results in unsightly stains that are difficult to remove and may cause further damage.
Discolouration and damage
Vochtplekken kunnen leiden tot verkleuring en beschadiging van het raamkozijn of omliggende materialen. Houtrot of afbladderende verf zijn veelvoorkomende problemen.
Over time, these damages may also weaken the structural integrity of your home.
Higher energy costs
Moist windows can indicate insulation problems, leading to heat loss. This means your heating system needs to work harder to maintain a comfortable temperature.
This increases both energy consumption and the bills.
Possible health issues
Moisture spots and the associated mould growth may contribute to potential health problems.
According to the GGD , this could include symptoms such as a sore throat, sneezing, coughing, and shortness of breath.
THE solutions!
To resolve moisture spots on windows and walls, it is essential to address both the underlying cause and treat the spots with a moisture-resistant solution. An expert can effectively assist you with this.
Tackling it yourself
Small moisture spots on windows can sometimes be treated yourself. Ensure proper ventilation in your home by keeping windows and doors open as much as possible.
Immediately remove condensation with a dry cloth to prevent further moisture build-up. Also, check if the window seals are intact, as damage to these can worsen the issue.
Have it treated
For persistent or extensive moisture problems, professional assistance is necessary. Attempting to solve the issue yourself is often ineffective, as identifying the root cause can be challenging.
A specialist can tackle the problem thoroughly. Lavos Totaal Service offers sustainable solutions for moisture problems.

Some insurance policies cover the cost of repairing or replacing leaking double glazing if the glass is less than 10 years old. However, this is not always included. Check your policy or contact your insurer for specific advice.
Leaking double glazing is identifiable by visible moisture or fogging inside the gap between the panes. Additionally, you may notice a white or blue haze caused by limescale build-up.
Keep curtains open at night to maintain the glass temperature closer to the room temperature, preventing condensation. If this is not an option, consider replacing thick curtains with thinner ones to allow better air circulation.
