One of my thoughts is if there was damp in those walls why didn’t it show up in the year when the house was empty and unoccupied…its only since we started living there that it showed up..but im no expert! :)

talk about answering your own question :lol:

just thought id mention that 'cillit bang with bleach' (make sure its the 'with bleach' version) works absolute wonders on mould, grimy grout etc...
tried it almost by accident, was cleaning the bog and sink with the missus cleaning products and got some overspray on the tiles.... bit of mildew round the silicon line etc....
forgot about it for a bit, then rinsed it off....
missus couldnt believe it!.. neither could i... cleaned the grout lines up loverly!

So bleach or Cillit Bang? what do you recommend? Im mindful of the paintwork so something that would bother that would be nice...
