Signs Your Roof Space is Suffering from Humidity & How to Fix It
Your roof space plays a crucial role in maintaining your home’s comfort and energy efficiency. However, excess humidity in your roof cavity can lead to significant issues, including mould growth, structural damage, and increased energy costs. Here are some key warning signs that your roof space may be suffering from humidity:
Signs of Roof Space Humidity Issues
- Wet, sagging, or compressed insulation – Moisture buildup can cause insulation to lose effectiveness, making it harder to regulate indoor temperatures.
- Increased heating and cooling costs – If your energy bills are rising unexpectedly, it could be due to poor roof ventilation causing heat retention in summer and damp air in winter.
- Musty odours from the ceiling or roof – A persistent damp smell can indicate mould or mildew growth due to trapped moisture.
