A damp garage is not uncommon, as many homeowners do not pay attention to complete insulation during construction. Many garages have no windows, so ventilation can only take place when the garage door is open. But a damp garage doesn’t have to be the case, because you can take a few measures in advance to keep the dampness to a minimum and even combat it in the long term.

Sufficient sealing should be ensured when building a garage. This is particularly essential for rooms without windows, as it prevents moisture from penetrating in the first place. You should also ventilate your garage regularly. Whether this is done via a small window or several times a day via the garage door is up to you. However, the window should not be tilted open for several hours, but the air should be exchanged over a few minutes. Continuous ventilation again creates the risk of too much moisture entering the garage, which only encourages mold growth. Unfortunately, it is not always possible to prevent moisture from entering the garage.
Our smart solution
With our garage configurator, you can design your garage according to your wishes in just a few clicks – from the size to the fittings.
At the first signs, action should be taken to prevent mold from developing in the first place. The affected plaster should be removed if no major damage has yet occurred. New plaster should then be applied to prevent mold from forming in the first place. Products with a lot of lime are suitable here, as this tends to remain dry and mold cannot develop in the first place. If the entire garage is already infested with mold, you should consider renovating it. Many homeowners then decide to build a carport, as air circulation is always ensured and mold no longer has a chance in the future.
With our garage configurator, you can easily and intuitively put together the size, fittings, doors, windows, and extras in just a few steps. We will then arrange a non-binding consultation with you, based on which you will receive an individual offer, naturally at a fair price and without any obligation to buy.
