My metal roof has condensation on the inside which is dripping onto loft insulation and through the ceiling. Can anyone tell me how to stop this please.

I have the same problem - loads of condensation now turning to ice with freezing temp. I was recommended installing an extractor fan on one end and a louvre opeing on the other to allow free flow of air thus equalising the inside/outside temp as much as you can - Let me know if you come up with any alternative solution- might be interesting sean

Condensation is the result of warm moist air reaching a cool surface. To stop it, you have to eliminate one or more of the factors, or separate them. Exact details vary from structure to structure. Todd Miller
