London weather is unpredictable, especially with irregular rain spells! Sometimes the excess humidity can lead to a damp smell in your home and workspace. Here is a simple deep cleaning guide to get rid of the damp smell-

Remove any damp thing 

Exposed damp materials and fabrics can hold both spores and smell unless professionally handled. Leaking or condensing pipe can develop mildew, and you won’t even see the damage for months.

Find the source

If you find the cause early, the smell won’t become as severe as in case of delay. Check leaky pipes, faucets, taps, poor insulation, and areas with dense condensation. Also, have a look at clogged gutters as the building moisture leads to microbial growth. Inspect these areas regularly and clean them if required.

How to Remove Mouldy Odours Spreading through DIYs?
