Damp Spots
In my bedroom at home I am finding that there are damp black spots on one wall that started at floor level and are moving up the wall. The wall is damp to touch and the spots can be wiped off. Condensation does build up quite heavily on the window in the room overnight and the wall is quite shaded. I try to ventilate as much as possible and also use a small dehumidifier. The particular room in question is adjacent to the bathroom. The flat is around 40-50 years old on ground level and was built originally with a chimney and fireplace which is now closed off. Other than that the only permanent ventilation I am aware of is through the vents at the top of the double-glazed windows. Any advice much appreciated!
