Your Ireby hire questions
How do I clear a musty, damp room?

How much does it cost to run per day?

Is it better to hire or buy a dehumidifier?
Delivery is usually available around Ireby, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How long until I see a difference in Ireby?
You'll often see the tank filling on day one. For lasting results, run it until the walls and air are properly dry — usually several days to a couple of weeks.

Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Keep things dry and you break the cycle. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
