Leak to dry to treated, one company in Leatherhead

Leatherhead's housing spans Victorian and Edwardian villas near the town centre, 1930s semis around Fetcham and Ashtead borders, and postwar estates towards Randalls Park, alongside newer flat conversions on Kingston Road. This mix of ageing plumbing runs, flat-roofed extensions and converted upper-floor bathrooms means hidden escapes of water are a recurring problem across the district.

Areas of Leatherhead we cover

We attend leaks right across Leatherhead and its neighbourhoods, including:

Common leaks in Leatherhead homes

Perished seals in older bathrooms

Many Leatherhead homes near the town centre and Fetcham still have original or aged bathroom fittings, where shower trays, bath edges and tiled surrounds rely on silicone seals that harden and crack over time. Once a seal fails, water tracks silently beneath tiles and floorboards, often reaching a ground-floor ceiling or kitchen below long before any staining becomes visible upstairs.

Flat roof failures on extensions

Rear kitchen extensions and garage conversions are common across Leatherhead's 1930s and postwar semis, and many rely on flat roofing that degrades faster than pitched tiles. Felt or asphalt coverings split or blister with age, letting rainwater seep into joists and ceiling voids gradually, so damage frequently spreads unnoticed within the roof structure before internal signs appear.

Concealed pipework in converted properties

Older properties around Leatherhead Common and Great Bookham have often been extended or split into flats, with plumbing rerouted through boxed-in ducts and under solid floors. Joints in this concealed pipework can fail quietly, and because the pipework sits behind plasterboard or beneath screed, escaping water can travel some distance before it surfaces as a stain or damp patch.

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.
