Ventilate, fix any obvious source of water, then run a properly sized dehumidifier. Within a few days the smell and the damp drop noticeably in Shirley.
How much does it cost to run per day?
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.
Is hiring worth it for a homeowner?
Delivery is usually available around Shirley, or collection from a local depot. Just add your address when you request a quote.
How many days should I hire one for?

Will a dehumidifier get rid of black mould?
It's the practical fix while you sort any underlying issue: drop the humidity and the black spots in Shirley stop spreading.
