Nancy Birtwhistle’s hack to get rid of water marks on walls is absolutely genius – it’s need-to-know information if you have a leak or damp patches

Damp penetrating wall under a windowsill.

The autumn and winter months take a toll on our homes, and if you’ve spotted water marks on your walls from an unexpected leak or damp patches, you’ll be happy to know that it’s possible to quickly and efficiently remove water marks from walls. In fact, cleaning guru and baking legend, Nancy Birtwhistle, has the perfect hack for it!

Whether it’s the result of leaky gutters, plumbing issues, a build-up of condensation, or, in Nancy’s case, a leak from the loft, water leaks can leave your walls looking streaky and patchy. In some cases, mineral build-up can even make them look and feel chalky. However, it’s essential to remove watermarks on walls properly.
