hi all,
built my garage the end of last summer and over winter there was an awful amount of condensation coming off the roof(the shed's timber framed with metal sheeting)
so does anyone know a good way of stopping the condensation this year, might actually do some work out there if its dry!!
thanks folks

Ventilation or heat.

Heat mainly, it stops condensation because the garages surfaces are heated up so theres no cold surface for the moisture in the air to condensate on.

You can get some sort of salt crystals that absorb the moisture and prevent it. My Gran uses it because she has an old house
