Leak to dry to treated, one company in Ealing

Ealing's housing stock ranges from Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Northfields and Hanwell, split into flats with shared risers, to interwar semis in Pitshanger and Castlebar, mansion blocks near Ealing Broadway and Haven Green, and rear extensions with flat roofs. This mix of ageing pipework, converted plumbing and flat-roof coverings makes hidden leaks a recurring problem across the borough.

Common leaks in Ealing homes

Converted terraces with bathrooms stacked over neighbours

Many Victorian and Edwardian terraces in West Ealing, Northfields and Hanwell were divided into flats decades ago, often with a bathroom built directly above a downstairs kitchen or living room. Perished seals around baths and shower trays, or a cracked waste pipe joint, can send water into the flat below for weeks before staining or a sagging ceiling gives it away.

Flat roof extensions on 1930s semis

Pitshanger, Castlebar and Mount Park have large numbers of 1930s semis with rear kitchen extensions and loft conversions finished in flat roofing felt or asphalt. These coverings have a limited lifespan, and once the membrane perishes or a joint fails, water tracks along joists and insulation rather than dripping straight through, so damage is often well established before anyone notices a leak.

Concealed pipework in mansion blocks and conversions

Purpose-built mansion blocks near Ealing Broadway and Haven Green, alongside older houses split into flats, tend to route plumbing through boxed-in ducts and between floors shared by several households. A failed joint or corroded pipe in this concealed pipework causes an escape of water that can spread sideways into adjoining flats, complicating both the source trace and the drying process.

★★★★★

I recently used a damp and mould specialist company and was extremely impressed with the service from start to finish. From the initial survey, they were knowledgeable, thorough, and took the time to clearly explain the cause of the issue rather than just treating the symptoms.

Was lovely working with the team and they did a fantastic and quick job to get all the mould out of my bathroom. Very much looking forward to working with them on other projects around my house!! Thank you for everything and shout out to Karim for being so sweet!

Tip: If your water meter ticks over with every tap off, or a wall or ceiling stays damp with no obvious cause, there is a hidden leak. Finding it early is far cheaper than repairing the mould and damage it leaves behind.
