Are dehumidifiers expensive to run?
With a humidistat the unit only runs when it needs to, which keeps costs down. No need to leave it on full all day.
Is hiring worth it for a homeowner?

Most rooms feel noticeably less damp within a few days; a soaked cellar or fresh plaster in Castlewigg can take a week or two. We'll suggest a sensible hire length when you ask.
Does this stop mould coming back in Castlewigg?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Keep things dry and you stop it regrowing. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
