Too much moisture in the single-family house after screed installation? Risk of mold?

In summer you can just relax, open the windows for 20 minutes in the morning and evening, and that's it.
I still got a dehumidifier because, to me, the cost-to-risk reduction ratio was worth it.
I had to let my screed dry for 2 months anyway due to delivery bottlenecks and trade bottlenecks.

Even in a "summer" like this one, we had to get a construction dryer because it felt like it rained almost all the time. The walls did not dry that way and I already ventilated several times a day.

yup, that's why I had one too :) Not a must, but it should be worth the few euros to you.

We are currently at this point!

Honestly: What is the easiest and best way to clean the ceilings? Constantly climbing the ladder and drying with towels... I’m busy with that 45 minutes every day :D

Does anyone have tips/tricks for the "tropical screed ventilation time"? xD

I placed a towel on a broom to dry clean the ceilings with it. This is much faster than using a ladder. However, it still keeps you somewhat busy.

I'll try that too... I think it should go a bit faster.

I'm curious when the tiler can start...

We have a tiled screed.

Screed has been in the house since 02/28 and the underfloor heating has been running since 02/05.

I think the building should be dry enough in 3-4 weeks. We ventilate 3 times a day.

Are there any experiences here?
