Hi all. Originally, I had a problem with mould (caused by
condensation hitting an outside wall) behind my bed in a modern
house.

I have today discovered that, - contrary to my original belief,
the wall in question is _actually_ a cavity wall!

The wall is the whole side of the house and is of concrete-block
construction, rendered on the outside. The house is built into a
hillside and can be seen he-

Why on Earth didn't you crop that picture - we don't need all those trees,
tarmac and other houses! Huge pictures like yours take a l-o-n-g time to
load.


Can anyone tell me... is there an effective way to cavity-fill
the wall, - and will this help cure my mould/condensation problem
inside the house?

We had rockwool cavity wall insulation installed some years ago. We hadn't
had a damp problem before this but afterwards the house had a more even
temperature and we noticed that the windows were showing more condensation
than before, presumably because the walls were then less cold than the glass
(double glazed).

In case what I said is misinterpreted, we haven't had a damp problem since
either. The house is a 1937 brick built semi.
