Coast and plains: frost and damp in Manawatū-Whanganui
On the coast, Whanganui averages about 7 ground frost days and 114 wet days a year. Inland, Palmerston North gets about 41 frost days and 122 wet days (NIWA, 1991 to 2020). Frost means condensation, and condensation means wet sills.
The 2023 Census recorded 18.5% of the region's homes as sometimes or always damp, and 13.7% with mould over A4 size at least sometimes. Tell the business about mould on ceilings and sills when you send the clean, so it's quoted.

In the region, 31.2% of households live in a home they don't own or keep in a family trust (2023 Census), and Palmerston North's students add plenty of flats to that. Leaving one? Tenancy Services asks for it to be reasonably clean and tidy, with your things and rubbish removed. The bond and tenancy rules explain the bond and Bond Hub.
