Damp, mould & leak services in Windsor
Windsor's housing spans Georgian and Victorian terraces around the Castle and Peascod Street, timber-framed cottages in Eton and Clewer, 1930s bay-fronted semis in Dedworth, and postwar estates further out, with riverside homes near Home Park and the Thames. This mix of solid-walled period buildings, ageing cavity walls and low-lying ground near the river means damp, condensation and flood-related problems are common across the town.

Common damp problems in Windsor homes
Riverside flooding and rising damp near the Thames
Properties along Home Park, Romney Lock and parts of Eton and Old Windsor sit close to the Thames floodplain and have experienced groundwater ingress and flood damage in wet winters. Rising damp is common in older solid-brick homes without effective damp-proof courses, and floors and skirtings near the river often stay damp long after water levels recede, encouraging mould growth in ground-floor rooms.
Solid-wall and listed buildings in the historic centre
Timber-framed and Georgian buildings around Windsor Castle, Church Street and parts of Eton High Street were built with solid walls and no cavity, making them prone to penetrating damp through brickwork and old lime render. Conservation area and listed status restrict the use of modern render, insulation or damp-proofing methods, so repairs need breathable materials and careful specification to avoid trapping moisture within the walls.
Condensation in 1930s semis and later extensions
Dedworth, Clewer and St Leonard's Road contain many 1930s bay-fronted semis and postwar homes that have been extended or converted with loft rooms and rear kitchens. Cavity walls in this era were not always insulated correctly, and added extensions frequently lack adequate ventilation, leading to condensation on cold walls, mould around windows and in bathrooms, and musty smells in poorly ventilated loft conversions.

Really impressed with the whole experience. The surveyor did a proper, thorough job and didn't rush anything, they got to the root cause of the damp and explained it all clearly. Detailed, professional and reassuring from start to finish. Couldn't recommend them more highly.
