Leak to dry to treated, one company in Woking
Woking's housing runs from Victorian and Edwardian terraces around Maybury and the town centre to 1930s semis in Horsell and Mayford, post-war estates in Sheerwater and Goldsworth Park, and newer flats near the station. Solid brick walls, converted lofts and basements, and low-lying ground near the River Wey and Basingstoke Canal all leave many homes prone to condensation and damp.

Common causes of mould in Woking homes
Solid-wall Victorian and Edwardian terraces
Many terraces around Maybury and central Woking have solid brick walls with no cavity, so cold spots form easily and condensation collects on internal faces. Combined with draught-proofed windows fitted without extra ventilation, moisture has nowhere to go, and black mould commonly develops on external walls, in bathrooms, and behind wardrobes pushed against cold elevations.
Post-war estates with concrete construction
Sheerwater and parts of Goldsworth Park include 1960s and 1970s concrete-panel and flat-roofed housing, where cold bridging and ageing roof coverings let moisture penetrate. Once damp gets into the structure, it is slow to dry out, and mould frequently appears on ceilings, around window reveals, and in corners of bedrooms where airflow is naturally poorest.
Low-lying homes near the Wey and Basingstoke Canal
Properties in Old Woking, Byfleet, and parts of Pyrford sit close to the River Wey and canal, where a high water table and periodic flooding raise ground moisture levels. This encourages rising and penetrating damp in older brickwork, and once walls stay damp for long periods, surface mould takes hold and keeps returning until the moisture source is properly addressed.

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.
