Kieran McCarthy: Why are some rooms in my home colder than others?

Builder Advice: What to consider when certain rooms are colder than others

we are dealing with either dampness or condensation (given that your are experiencing mould and wallpaper peeling off the wall in question), so we need to isolate the problem and propose solutions.

Hi Kieran

We live in a bungalow built in 1984/86. We have gutted it, replacing doors, windows are triple glazed, the walls are pumped, and attic insulated. The problem is the two end bedrooms are colder than the rest of the house and we now have to remove a fitted wardrobe as my clothes smell mouldy. We have a PIV (positive input ventilation) system in place and there is damp course: also the gable wall of this room is cold and wallpaper won’t stay up on it. There is no sign of dampness on the wall. Our heads are wrecked, can you help solve the problem? Our heating is a stove that works well.
