Leak to dry to treated, one company in Farnborough Kent

Farnborough Kent mixes Victorian and Edwardian cottages along the old high street with 1930s semis, postwar estates and newer infill homes towards Locksbottom and Orpington. This variety means pipework of very different ages sits under one roof type after another, while flat-roofed extensions and garages, common on the interwar semis, and older bathroom conversions in the village cottages, give hidden leaks plenty of routes to take hold unnoticed.

Common leaks in Farnborough Kent homes

Flat roofs on extensions and garages

Many of Farnborough's 1930s semis and detached houses have flat-roofed rear extensions or garages added over the decades. Felt or older asphalt coverings degrade with age and weather, letting water track slowly into ceiling voids and wall cavities. Because the roof itself may look intact from ground level, the leak often only shows once staining or a damp patch appears well below.

Bathrooms leaking into rooms below

Older cottages and converted properties around the village centre frequently have bathrooms fitted above living rooms or kitchens without the tanking standards used today. Failed shower trays, cracked grout or a loose bath seal can send water through the floor structure for weeks before a ceiling stain or soft flooring below gives the problem away.

Perished seals and escape of water from ageing plumbing

With housing stock spanning Victorian cottages through to postwar estate homes, Farnborough has a wide spread of pipework ages. Rubber washers, compression joints and stopcock seals perish over time, and an escape of water from a hidden joint under a sink or behind a stud wall can run for some time before it is noticed, particularly in less-used rooms.

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.

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.
