How to Prevent Damp and Humidity Damage in Your Mallorca Villa

Autumn in Mallorca brings cooler evenings, heavier air, and the first signs of humidity creeping into even the most beautiful homes. For luxury villas, damp control isn’t just about comfort it’s about protecting your investment.

At Lyvo, our property experts see every year how small humidity problems quickly turn into expensive repairs. Here’s how to stay ahead and keep your villa fresh, dry, and damage-free.

1. Know the Early Signs of Damp

Spotting humidity early is key. Look for:

•Condensation on windows or glass doors

•Musty odours in wardrobes or storage areas

•Peeling paint, swollen wood, or dark patches on walls

•Mildew in bathrooms or near air-conditioning vents

Catching these indicators early can save you thousands in structural repairs later.

2. Keep the Air Moving

Still air is damp air. Ensure proper ventilation throughout your villa, especially in basements and bathrooms.

•Keep internal doors open when possible

•Use dehumidifiers in problem areas

•Make sure A/C systems are serviced and filters cleaned

Lyvo experts can arrange seasonal air-quality checks and ensure all ventilation systems are running efficiently.

3. Inspect Roofs, Drains, and Gutters

After summer’s dry spell, autumn rain can reveal hidden cracks or blocked drains.

•Clear leaves and debris from gutters

•Check flat roofs for pooling water

•Ensure terraces have proper drainage

A professional inspection before the rainy season prevents water from finding its way inside.

4. Manage Indoor Moisture

Avoid leaving wet towels, laundry, or plants in enclosed spaces. Kitchens and bathrooms are humidity hotspots keep extractor fans clean and functional.

5. Schedule Regular Property Checks

For second-home owners away from the island, damp can develop unnoticed. Lyvo’s regular villa inspections include humidity monitoring, leak detection, and photographic reports, so you’re always in control wherever you are.
