Leak to dry to treated, one company in Tulse Hill

Tulse Hill's housing stock ranges from Victorian and Edwardian terraces carved into flats, to interwar semis, low-rise council blocks around the Tulse Hill estate, and mansion conversions near Brockwell Park. This mix of shared plumbing stacks, flat-roofed extensions and ageing bathroom conversions means a single failed joint or perished seal can send water tracking through floors into neighbouring flats before anyone notices.

Common leaks in Tulse Hill homes

Converted terraces with shared plumbing stacks

Many Tulse Hill terraces near Brixton Hill and Christchurch Road were split into flats decades ago, leaving old plumbing stacks serving several bathrooms stacked one above another. When a joint fails or a waste pipe cracks inside a boxed-in stack, water tracks down between floors unseen, soaking joists and the ceiling of the flat below long before a resident spots a stain or damp patch.

Flat roofs on council blocks and rear extensions

The low-rise blocks around the Tulse Hill estate and many rear-extension kitchens on the surrounding streets rely on flat felt or asphalt roofing. Once this covering perishes or blisters, rainwater finds a way through the deck and travels sideways along the timber before dripping into the room below, so the visible damage often sits well away from the actual point of failure.

Bathroom refits leaking into rooms below

Loft conversions and upgraded bathrooms are common in the 1930s semis and mansion conversions near Norwood and Herne Hill borders. Shower trays, re-tanked wet rooms and re-sealed baths depend on unbroken seals around waste pipes and tiling; once silicone or tanking perishes, escape of water seeps through the floor deck into the ceiling below, often staying hidden until plaster begins to sag or discolour.

What our customers say

★★★★★

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.

I have been dealing with damp and mould for years but these guys were able to come in and resolve the problem quickly and professionally. Their prices were fair and reasonable and they got the job done clean. 10/10 would use again and would recommend.

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.
