Leak to dry to treated, one company in Kenton
Kenton is dominated by 1930s semi-detached and terraced houses with bay windows, pebbledash render and solid brick walls, alongside interwar purpose-built flats near the station. Many homes have had loft conversions or rear extensions added over the decades, disrupting original ventilation paths and creating cold bridging that condenses moisture, feeding mould on walls, ceilings and behind furniture.

Common causes of mould in Kenton homes
Single-glazed bay windows and condensation mould
Kenton's characteristic 1930s bay windows often retain older frames or poorly sealed replacements, so warm indoor air condenses on cold glass and reveals overnight. Black mould spreads across sills, curtains and the plaster around the frame. We treat the affected surfaces and improve ventilation and insulation around the bay so condensation stops forming and mould does not return.
Loft conversion ensuites trapping moisture
Many Kenton semis have converted lofts with compact ensuite shower rooms squeezed under the roofline, often with undersized or poorly ducted extractor fans. Steam has nowhere to escape, settling on sloped ceilings and around Velux windows where mould takes hold. Our fix pairs mould treatment with correcting the extraction and ductwork so humidity actually leaves the building.
Pebbledash walls and penetrating damp behind furniture
Solid brick walls under cracked or aged pebbledash render are common across Kenton's interwar streets, letting rain penetrate through hairline defects into internal plaster. This shows as damp patches and mould on external walls, frequently hidden behind wardrobes or headboards pushed against the cold face. We trace the entry point, repair the render or pointing, then treat and dry the internal wall.
