Leak to dry to treated, one company in Wallington

Wallington's housing stock is dominated by 1930s semi-detached and terraced homes, with Victorian and Edwardian properties near the town centre and post-war estates around Roundshaw. Many semis have had bathrooms, kitchens and loft conversions added over the decades, meaning original plumbing runs alongside newer pipework, joints and flat-roofed extensions that are common sources of hidden leaks.

Common leaks in Wallington homes

Bathrooms leaking through solid floors in 1930s semis

Wallington's characteristic 1930s semi-detached houses often have upstairs bathrooms positioned directly above reception rooms. Perished seals around baths, showers and old waste pipework can let water track slowly through joists and solid floors, appearing as staining or a soft patch on the ceiling below long after the original leak began, making the source hard to trace without investigation.

Flat roof extensions over kitchens and bathrooms

Many Wallington homes have single-storey rear extensions with flat felt or asphalt roofs covering kitchens or bathrooms. These coverings degrade with age and weather exposure, allowing water to enter gradually rather than as an obvious leak. Moisture can spread across the extension ceiling and into adjoining walls before any damp patch becomes visible inside.

Converted flats and post-war housing with shared pipework

Around Roundshaw and other converted or purpose-built flats in Wallington, shared plumbing stacks and closely stacked bathrooms mean a failed seal or escape of water in one flat can travel through floors into the property below. These leaks are often only discovered once a neighbour reports damp ceilings or staining, well after the water damage has spread.

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.
