Your Sayers Common hire questions
How do I clear a musty, damp room?
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 Sayers Common.
How much does it cost to run per day?
It depends on the model and how long it runs, but you're typically looking at a few pence to around £1 of electricity per day of use.
Is hiring worth it for a homeowner?
Yes — to dry out a cellar or get through a damp spell, a few days' hire is often enough and costs far less than buying.
How long until I see a difference in Sayers Common?
You'll often feel the difference on day one. For lasting results, run it until the walls and air are properly dry — usually a few days upwards.
Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
Yes, indirectly — mould thrives on damp air. Hold the humidity down and you stop it regrowing. For heavy growth, treat the surface first, then dry the room.
