Defects and Damage
How is mould and damp damage in the interior dealt with?
Mould is a consequence, not a cause; cleaning it only corrects the appearance and it returns while the moisture source remains. The source is found first: hatch and window leaks, water entering under deck fittings, condensation or a plumbing leak.
Why it works this way
A borescope shows what lies behind the linings and a moisture meter shows the wetness in the laminate, both without dismantling. Treating the mould before finding the source is the most commonly repeated repair on a boat.
