Leak to dry to treated, one company in Farnborough Br
Farnborough Br is a mix of postwar semis and detached houses along the A21 corridor, interwar bungalows around Farnborough Park, and older cottages nearer the village high street, with newer infill flats towards Locksbottom. This variety of ages and build types means plumbing standards, roof coverings and bathroom waterproofing differ hugely from one property to the next, giving hidden leaks plenty of routes in.

Common leaks in Farnborough Br homes
Ageing plumbing in postwar semis
Many of Farnborough Br's 1930s to 1960s semi-detached homes still carry original or early-replacement pipework hidden beneath floorboards and behind stud walls. Joints corrode and soldered fittings weaken with age, producing slow, silent leaks that soak into chipboard flooring and timber joists long before a stain appears on a ceiling below, making early detection difficult without proper moisture surveys.
Flat-roofed extensions and garages
Rear extensions and integral garages are common additions across Farnborough Br's larger plots, many finished with felt or asphalt flat roofs. These coverings degrade, blister and split over time, especially where falls are shallow, allowing rainwater to track along joists and drop into kitchens or utility rooms far from the actual point of entry, complicating repairs.
Ensuites and bathrooms above living space
Bungalows and two-storey houses in areas like Farnborough Park often have upstairs bathrooms or ensuites sitting directly above lounges and hallways. Perished shower seals, cracked grout and failed tray joints let water seep through subfloors gradually, so damage to plasterboard ceilings and light fittings below can be well advanced before residents notice any visible sign upstairs.
