DAMP & MOULD IN MALLORCA
Find the cause first, then fix it properly
Dark patches in the corner, a musty smell after the winter, plaster crumbling at the bottom of the wall: many homeowners in Mallorca know the signs. Often it is mould, but sometimes it is damp coming in from outside or rising from the ground. They can look similar but need very different solutions.
That is why we always inspect your property first. Only once we know where the moisture is coming from do we recommend a treatment that solves the problem for good – rather than just painting over it.
What is behind it?
MOULD OR A DAMP WALL?
Mould caused by condensation
Typical signs are dark spots in room corners, around windows or behind wardrobes. The usual cause is humid indoor air condensing on cold exterior walls – especially in homes that stand empty over the winter.
Damp in the masonry
If plaster is crumbling at the base of the wall, white salt marks appear or the wall stays damp even in summer, water is often rising from the ground or getting in from outside. In that case the wall itself needs to be sealed.

Our approach
FROM INSPECTION TO A DRY WALL
Find the cause
We look at the affected areas, the wall construction and how the house is used. Photos sent in advance help us give you a first assessment.
Choose the right solution
Depending on the cause, we use calcium silicate boards, waterproof render or a damp-proof course – mostly with systems from redstone.
Repair and prevent
We carry out the work properly and give you tips on airing and heating so it stays dry.
