<p>Now I am back here re-visiting this as summer has finally started to kick in.</p>
<p>Last weekend we noticed a musty smell in our room and low and behold, our dear friend 'mould' had come back and ruined my bag that was in cupboard underneath our bed. To be fair, there is little ventilation and it was packed so partly my fault, but we did find little bits of mould in our main wardrobe as well.</p>
<p>Did anyone on this thread or anyone in this forum ever get a PIV system installed?</p>

<p>Yeah it does the job, i mean we still get small spot of mould here and there, but we just use mould cleaner to clean it. With the dehumidifier, we dont get any more condensation which massively helps stop the mould from growing.</p>

<p>Hi Sally</p>
<p>No i didnt, instead I ended up buying a de-humidifer which does the job perfectly in winter.</p>
<p>We had a damp specialist come in and inspect our place for free and said we didn't have any major issues and that a dehumidifer would do the job.</p>

<p>We had Advanced Services around and they didn't try and sell us a product that we didn't need. By the time they came to survey our property I already had a number of companies come through and with all the investigation I did they basically suggested the same as the others. More ventilation by way of airbricks and passive ventilation systems.</p>

<p>Thanks for this. We definitely have some concrete that sits too high up our external wall. Who would I get to install a french drain for me? Or is it easy enough to take the concrete out oneself (if so how?!) and put a drain down covered with gravel and directed into an existing drain?</p>
