Mould On Conservatory Roof

Mould only tends to occur in the presence of condensation.

Mould on conservatory roof.

This can be caused by poor ventilation in the conservatory or a significant difference in temperature between that in the conservatory and outside or in adjacent rooms. Mould is caused by moisture in the air which often forms as condensation on windows and other surfaces. At home logic we specialise in all things relating to conservatories from the construction of new ones to the improvement of old ones. Hi we have a 3x5 upvc conservatory with a glass roof running across the back of our house north facing.

By insulating the roof you will be able to keep your conservatory warm which will reduce the chances of mould infestation along the roof. We ve found in the last few weeks we ve had real problems with condensation where even during the day the conservatory windows and roof are covered in water and we are starting to see mould growth. Mould is a sure sign that your conservatory has inadequate heating and ventilation sometimes localised to cold spots where there are concealed gaps or a small leak that is seeping in. I do this with an old fashioned stringy mop to which i ve attached an extra long handle and scrub it with hot water containing some cif oxy action cleaner or similar.

A couple of times a year i clean the exterior of my lean to conservatory polycarbonate roof. Roofs are one of the most common areas of a mould infestation in your conservatory as we have already discussed.
