Leak to dry to treated, one company in Lancing
Lancing's housing mix spans 1930s bay-fronted semis and bungalows across North and South Lancing, post-war estates around Mash Barn and Boundstone, and seafront flats near Beach Green and Widewater. Many bungalows carry flat-roofed extensions, while older properties retain original lead flashings and cast iron guttering, both increasingly prone to hidden water leaks as materials age and joints perish.

Common leaks in Lancing homes
Flat-roofed extensions on Lancing's bungalows
The bungalow belt across North and South Lancing is dotted with flat-roofed kitchen and bathroom extensions built from the 1960s onwards. Ageing felt or asphalt coverings crack and blister with age, letting water seep in slowly rather than dripping visibly. It often tracks sideways across ceiling timbers before staining plasterboard, so the leak's source can sit well away from the damp patch that finally appears.
Upstairs bathrooms in North Lancing's older semis
Many of North Lancing's 1930s semis and terraces had bathrooms added above kitchens or added over the years, running pipework through joists that were never designed for it. Perished washers, failed shower trays and old lead or early copper joints can leak steadily into the ceiling void below, softening plaster and staining timber long before a resident notices water on the bathroom floor itself.
Seafront flats around Beach Green and Widewater
Flats close to Beach Green and the Widewater lagoon face constant salt-laden air off the Channel, which speeds up the perishing of window seals, balcony membranes and flat roof coverings. Escape of water through a failed seal on an upper floor can travel down through party walls and floors, affecting a neighbouring flat below before the original defect is ever traced or reported.

Jensen B, via Google
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.
