Common questions in Botanic
Which dehumidifier should I hire for damp and mould?
For a cold or unheated room, choose a compressor model rated for low temperatures and matched to the room size. Skip the little moisture absorbers — they're too small for a genuinely damp room in Botanic.
Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
It depends on the model and how long it runs, but you're typically looking at not much of electricity per day of use.
Can you deliver to Botanic?
Delivery is usually available around Botanic, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How many days should I hire one for?
Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within 2 to 3 days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Botanic can take a little longer. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Can it help with mould on the walls?
It's the practical fix while you sort any underlying issue: drop the humidity and the black spots in Botanic lose the damp they feed on.
