Aspergillosis is a condition caused by aspergillus mould. There are several different types of aspergillosis. Most affect the lungs and cause breathing difficulties.

How you get aspergillosis

Aspergillosis is usually caused by inhaling tiny bits of mould.

You cannot catch aspergillosis from someone else or from animals.

Most people who breathe in the mould do not get ill.

Aspergillosis is rare in healthy people

You’re usually only at risk of aspergillosis if you have:

• A lung condition – such as asthma, cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• A weakened immune system – for example, if you have had an organ transplant or are having chemotherapy
• Had tuberculosis (TB) in the past

This why we at Humidity Response in this current situation (COVID 19) are treating mould in the home with some urgency.

Depending on the severity of the damp, we may install dehumidifiers and air movers to start the drying program. Where possible, we always aim to repair possessions and fittings that have been damaged by the damp. If the damage is too extreme (e.g. corroded nails, screws and iron fittings, rotting timber and structures) we replace with new fittings.

There are many sources of damp, including:

• Rising damp
• Penetrating damp
• Condensation
• Leaks in roof, windows and doors
• Faulty guttering and drainage

Once our Damp Repair Specialists have identified the source of damp in your property, it is possible to take measures to ensure it does not return.
For example:

• Your roof gutters, down pipes & drains should be clear, with no obstructions, leaks or overflows.
• Ground levels should be well below the damp-proof course (DPC).
• All air vents should be free from obstruction.
• All external brickwork, pointing and rendering should be watertight

Our Mould and Damp Repair Specialists are based in Kent, South East of the UK and work across Southern UK from Kent to London to Surrey, Sussex and Essex.
