Leak to dry to treated, one company in Bethnal Green
Bethnal Green's housing runs from Victorian terraces with suspended timber floors and lath-and-plaster walls to dense post-war council blocks around Cambridge Heath and Globe Town, plus converted weavers' lofts near Brick Lane. This mix means a leak behaves very differently building to building, with timber voids, solid concrete floors and old brick party walls each trapping moisture in their own way.

Drying challenges in Bethnal Green homes
Suspended timber floors in Victorian terraces
Many Bethnal Green terraces off Roman Road and Old Bethnal Green Road still have suspended timber ground floors over a shallow void. A burst pipe or flooding sends water straight under the boards, soaking joists and sleeper walls where airflow is already poor. Left unchecked, this hidden void breeds mould and fungal decay long after the surface floor looks dry, so we monitor beneath the boards, not just on top.
Solid concrete floors in post-war estate flats
Around the Cambridge Heath and Globe Town estates, many flats sit on solid concrete floors with a screed topping laid directly onto the slab. Once water gets in, it soaks into the screed and travels sideways under skirting and partition walls, and concrete simply holds moisture far longer than timber. Drying these floors properly needs sustained dehumidification, not just surface mopping, or damp resurfaces as mould weeks later.
Lath-and-plaster walls in converted weavers' houses
Bethnal Green's converted Georgian and Victorian weavers' houses near Brick Lane and Columbia Road often retain original lath-and-plaster internal walls and lime-rendered party walls. These absorb water readily and release it slowly, so damp can sit trapped behind skirting boards and old dado rails for weeks. Modern paint and plasterboard patches over these walls make things worse by sealing moisture in rather than letting it breathe out.

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.
