Causes of moisture problems
Moisture in the shed often arises due to poor ventilation, rising damp, or leaks. Issues with rainwater drainage can also contribute to moisture problems in the shed.
Poor Ventilation
Insufficient airflow allows moist air to linger, leading to condensation and mould growth.
Rising moisture
Moisture from the ground can rise through walls or floors, especially if damp-proofing is missing or damaged.
Leaks
Damaged roofing, leaking gutters, or cracked walls can let rainwater seep in, worsening moisture problems.
Rainwater drainage problems
Poor drainage around the shed can cause puddles to form, allowing moisture to seep into the walls or floor.
The consequences
Excessive moisture can make the shed uncomfortable and less suitable for storage. If not addressed, it can lead to various complications such as wood rot, rust, damage, and mould.
Wood rot and rust
Wooden structures like beams, shelves, and furniture can deteriorate from prolonged exposure to moisture. Metal tools and equipment may corrode due to consistently high humidity levels.
Damage
Stored items can become unusable due to moisture stains, mould, or warping. Walls and floors may also weaken from long-term exposure to moisture.
Mould
In addition, too much moisture can lead to mould. This not only affects the space, but can also cause health problems. The RIVM warns of symptoms such as sore throat, a stuffy nose and shortness of breath.
THE solutions!
Addressing moisture in the shed starts with identifying and tackling the root cause. With over 30 years of experience, we offer tailored solutions for every moisture problem.
Ventilation
Proper ventilation is essential for removing humid air and preventing condensation. Ventilation grilles or mechanical ventilation systems are effective solutions.
Moisture-resistant coating
Applying a moisture-resistant coating to walls and floors is an effective way to prevent rising and penetrating damp. This protects the shed’s structure from damage.
Isolation
Insulation also plays a key role. A well-insulated shed reduces temperature fluctuations, preventing condensation. This helps keep your shed dry and fully functional.
FAQs
