Construction drying solutions FAQs

What are the benefits of maintaining proper humidity during construction?

You should always aim to keep relative humidity within safe levels on your construction site to:

  • Protect the health and productivity of your team, by minimising the presence of toxic mould spores and potential slip hazards

  • Safeguard the integrity of your materials, as wood, metal, concrete and more are all susceptible to high humidity

  • Maximise the condition of critical equipment, as moisture can damage hand tools and electrical apparatus

Ultimately, the right climate plays an important role in protecting employee wellbeing and keeping your projects’ costs and timelines under control.

Can humidity control help prevent health issues for construction workers?

Yes. Humidity control can be an effective way of protecting builders from symptoms of mould exposure, such as asthma, skin rashes, congestion and more. Keeping a suitably dry environment is also a reliable way of avoiding slip hazards on building sites too.

Are there government regulations or standards for construction site humidity control?

While there are no government regulations that state how high or low relative humidity must be on a construction site, many organisations agree that the ideal climate should fall between 40% and 60% relative humidity.

Why is humidity control important in construction?

Humidity control is vital on practically any construction project because:

  • Excess moisture creates an uncomfortable, unsafe workspace
  • Damp environments damage many types of building materials
  • Wet air erodes the condition of tools and equipment
  • Large amounts of moisture slow paint and plaster drying times
  • Uncontrolled moisture can cause costly delays

What are the common signs of moisture problems on-site?

If you have a problem with excess moisture on your worksite, you may notice that:

  • Condensation is starting to form inside
  • Mould and mildew is taking hold
  • Musty, unpleasant smells are spreading quickly
  • Building materials are rapidly deteriorating

What should I do if I encounter moisture problems during construction?

While the exact steps you should take will depend on your specific scenario, as a rule of thumb:

  • Deploy dehumidifiers, positioning them in a central area where they can work well
  • Run dryers at a continuous rate, allowing them to gently dry out a space over time
  • Seal the area as best you can, keeping moisture from finding its way back in
  • Implement ventilation, ensuring consistent air circulation
