    I did what the plumber chap did and it stopped the damp problems in my bedroom, I open it during the day and close it at night , I think Sam over analysed this problem and has dug himself into a hole 👍

    I'd say it could work however the cold will also go into the cavity and chill the outside wall further, potentially causing more condensation.

    I think it’s just a cold spot and needs treating with antifungal paintAnd it also looks like the window is misted up on the outside not the inside so hard to tell

    I’ve had some damp issues upstairs which we’ve put down to old roof was leaking bad and really soaked the house , they stuck a new roof on which seems great but didn’t give the walls any time to dry out prior to reskimming poorly over all the old walls they didn’t even remove the old soaked hard wall or plaster , on inspection the house seemed fine and had been sat empty for 18 months and had no issues , we come along whacked a whole new heating system in new rads etc and with in a few weeks the damp started showing , it never got worse , at the minute we’ve stripped back to brick work in the effected places and allowed to dry out which it seems to do be doing , the bottom floor and second floor has vents on the chimney stacks the 3rd floor doesn’t and seems to be in the places it’s effected , for now am just going to leave it to see if it dries out better and keep monitoring with a damp meter but we’ve been told to vent it , watched all your videos great content great that experts like yourself share your valuable experience with the world 👍

    Don’t block airflow vents you’re just trapping in moisture.

      We use Drygrip to fix the boards but it does depend on the back it’s being fixed to

    A bit cheap copy someone else’s video and trashing it. I think you’re probably right but make your own video on how to fix the problem, from scratch. Northern plain speaking != rude. Plus plenty of your videos have you bunging in a solution and you don’t show if it’s worked in a year’s time.

    much rather have simple cost effective solution than overhyped and over-priced 'damp' products. thermal paint on old cold walls. never dry clothes indoors. warm wet rooms before showers n baths . keep all doors closed near showers n baths. open a window once a day unless obv -10. 99% of 'damp' probs are wet ingress probs - drains splashing down against outside walls, faulty gutters etc. stop the water / condensation and voila! damp solved

      I don’t get it. First you say that opening the vent will just make things worse but at the end of the video you say to do what the man in the video did , open up the vent. Did I get it wrong somewhere?
