Go for a compressor (refrigerant) unit with a good extraction rate and, if possible, continuous drainage. Give us the rough square metres and we'll match the right model for Llysworney.
Will it push my electricity bill up?
Running costs stay modest: a domestic unit often runs a few hours a day thanks to the built-in humidistat, which switches it off once the target humidity is reached.

If the need is short-term, hiring is the smarter move: no expensive unit sitting idle afterwards, and you get the right model for the problem in Llysworney straight away.
How quickly will it dry my room?
It depends how wet things are: a damp room clears in days, while a flooded space in Llysworney may need a week or more of continuous running.
Does this stop mould coming back in Llysworney?
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.
