Leak to dry to treated, one company in Morden
Morden's housing stock is dominated by 1920s and 1930s semi-detached and terraced homes, many built as part of the St Helier and Merton Park estates, alongside inter-war bay-fronted houses near Morden Hall Park and newer flats around the town centre. Original clay plumbing, flat-roofed rear extensions and ageing bathroom conversions in these older properties make hidden leaks a recurring problem for local homeowners.

Common leaks in Morden homes
Flat roof extensions on 1930s semis
Many Morden semis along streets near Morden Park and Lower Morden gained flat-roofed kitchen or bathroom extensions decades ago. Felt or asphalt coverings perish with age and UV exposure, allowing rainwater to track along joists unseen. Homeowners often only notice a ceiling stain or bulging plaster long after water has been seeping into timber and insulation below.
Retrofitted bathrooms above ground floor rooms
In the terraced and semi-detached houses typical of St Helier and Merton Park, first-floor bathrooms were frequently added after original construction, sitting above kitchens or lounges. Failed shower trays, cracked grout or perished sealant around baths let water escape gradually through floor joists, causing damp patches and sagging ceilings in the room below before residents realise anything is wrong.
Ageing plumbing in converted flats and maisonettes
Morden town centre and surrounding roads include older houses divided into flats and maisonettes, often sharing risers and concealed pipework installed decades ago. Corroded joints, perished washing machine hoses or degraded push-fit fittings can leak slowly within stud walls or under flooring, affecting neighbouring units and going undetected until damp or a spike in water usage is noticed.

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.
