Hi all
Went into my 'shop' last night and noticed that the mill was damp to the touch and on some metal stock I have stored there you could see the beads of condensation.
So I'm now looking for some simple methods of trying to keep things a bit dryer.
The shop is actually a single car garage - about 20' x 10' brick construction with flat roof, entry via the up and over door and it has a single window at the opposite end.
I can't afford to spend too much on upgrading at the moment so what should be the first steps I take to improving things. Was considering
1. Getting a dehumidifier
2. Trying to stop some of the draughts (especially around the up and over door) - although not sure this is good thing or not
3. Some sort of heating - but this would be like burning £££ as the garage is so cold and draughty
4. Insulating the garage - proabably the best option but involves more expense and a lot of aggro
Any advice gratefully accepted
Cheers
Jim
