Southampton exhibits a significant degree of dampness, largely attributable to its historical Victorian housing stock featuring aged slate Damp Proof Courses (DPCs). Additionally, its coastal location contributes to moisture ingress from the sea, and its construction on marshland further exacerbates the issue.

Southampton has a historical heritage includes Roman settlements, medieval prosperity, and damage during World War II. Southampton is known for its maritime history, the Titanic, and its role in aviation. Its natural deep-water harbour and double tide enable access to large vessels. 

Poor ventilation in many older buildings can cause condensation, especially when heating is not used during colder months. This can lead to dampness and mould growth in homes.
