Leak to dry to treated, one company in Earlsfield
Earlsfield is dominated by rows of late-Victorian and Edwardian terraces built around the railway, many with solid brick walls, single-glazed sash windows and small extensions to the rear. Numerous houses have been split into flats with shared plumbing and limited ventilation, while properties near the River Wandle and Garratt Lane sit on low-lying ground prone to damp.

Common causes of mould in Earlsfield homes
Solid brick terraces with no cavity insulation
Much of Earlsfield's housing stock was built before cavity walls were standard, so external walls conduct cold straight through to the plaster. Warm, moist air from cooking, drying laundry and bathing condenses on these cold internal surfaces, and black mould spreads across ceilings, corners and behind wardrobes pushed against outer walls, especially once autumn temperatures drop.
Flat conversions with poor bathroom and kitchen ventilation
Many Earlsfield terraces have been divided into flats, often without extractor fans matched to the number of occupants or trickle vents fitted to replacement windows. Steam has nowhere to escape, so it settles on tiled bathroom walls, window frames and ceilings above showers, leaving persistent black spotting that returns within weeks of cleaning unless the ventilation itself is corrected.
Rear extensions and lower-ground flats near the Wandle
Properties close to Garratt Lane and the River Wandle, along with rear kitchen extensions built onto older footings, can suffer penetrating damp where flat roofs, damp-proof courses or render have failed. Moisture tracks through the wall structure and shows as mould at skirting level, around window reveals and in cupboards until the original entry point for the water is traced and sealed.

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.
