Leak to dry to treated, one company in Notting Hill

Notting Hill's housing is dominated by tall stucco-fronted Victorian terraces and mansion blocks, many carved into flats and garden maisonettes with shared communal roofs and pipework. This layered ownership means a leak from one flat's bathroom or an ageing parapet gutter can travel through several floors before anyone notices, often surfacing well away from its true source.

Areas of Notting Hill we cover

We attend leaks right across Notting Hill and its neighbourhoods, including:

Common leaks in Notting Hill homes

Converted terraces with shared plumbing risers

Many Notting Hill terraces were split into flats decades ago, leaving plumbing risers and waste stacks boxed into walls shared between neighbours. A failed joint or perished washer inside one flat can seep quietly through party walls and floor voids, damaging the flat below long before a resident upstairs notices anything wrong.

Flat and mansard roof failures

The rear extensions and mansard roof additions common behind Notting Hill's grand facades often use flat felt or asphalt roofing that perishes over time. Once the membrane cracks or pools with standing water, rain tracks silently along joists and ceiling voids, appearing as staining rooms away from the actual point of entry.

Ensuite bathrooms cut into period floors

Loft and basement conversions across Notting Hill's period properties frequently squeeze ensuite bathrooms into spaces never designed for wet rooms. Perished shower seals, poorly sealed tray edges or degraded tanking let water escape into the floor structure below, saturating original lath and plaster ceilings before any visible sign appears.

What our customers say

★★★★★

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.

Clearly communication, easy to deal with and responsive. We would thoroughly recommend. The report was really detailed making our buying negotiations a lot stronger and leaving us with a clear plan of action with possible timeframes.

Was lovely working with the team and they did a fantastic and quick job to get all the mould out of my bathroom. Very much looking forward to working with them on other projects around my house!! Thank you for everything and shout out to Karim for being so sweet!

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.
