Damp in a Small Cupboard

Post by moviebuff247 »

I have a small cupboard in my hall which has both hot and cold water pipes leading into the bathrooms. Condensation from these pipes has created some damp in the cupboard. Can someone advise on the best way to treat this in the first instance and then how to prevent it from re-occurring.

Lagging the cold pipes should help with this.

Something like this on the cold water pipes should help-
