Dry Home Advice Long-tail damp-control guide
Condensation on bedroom windows
Bedroom condensation often appears overnight because people breathe out moisture while the glass is cold and ventilation is low.
Before you buy anything
- Check whether the moisture is linked to daily activity such as cooking, showering or drying clothes.
- Measure humidity with a hygrometer for several days rather than relying on guesswork.
- Look for leaks, staining, crumbling plaster or persistent wet patches. Those need repair or professional advice.
- Use products to control household moisture; do not use them to hide structural damp.
