Leak to dry to treated, one company in Wallington
Wallington's housing runs from Victorian and Edwardian terraces near the town centre and Manor Road through to 1930s bay-fronted semis around Woodcote and Beddington, plus the post-war Roundshaw estate built on the old Croydon Airport site. That spread of solid-wall terraces, ageing cavity semis and concrete-built estate housing gives mould several different routes in, from failed pointing to poor ventilation.

Common causes of mould in Wallington homes
Solid-wall terraces near the town centre and Manor Road
Many Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Wallington centre were built with solid brick walls and no cavity, so driving rain and failed pointing let moisture track straight through to the inside face. This shows up as black mould on chimney breasts, on external walls behind wardrobes, and in ground-floor rooms where old solid floors hold dampness, needing repointing and rendering repairs rather than just a wipe-down.
1930s semis around Woodcote and Beddington
The bay-fronted semis common around Woodcote and Beddington have cavity walls but were fitted with small original windows, later swapped for sealed PVC units that cut ventilation right down. Bathrooms and bedrooms in these homes commonly develop condensation mould on cold external corners and around window reveals, since moist air from daily living has nowhere to escape and settles on the coolest surfaces in the house.
Roundshaw estate and post-war housing
Roundshaw, built on the former Croydon Airport site, has a mix of flat-roofed and concrete-panel construction where thermal bridging at lintels and roof junctions creates persistent cold spots. Mould often appears around window frames, on ceilings below flat roofs, and behind sofas or beds pushed against external walls, and treating it properly means addressing the roof and wall detailing, not just cleaning the visible patches.
