Why damp should never be ignored
Damp problems in Finchley homes can quickly escalate if left untreated, leading to issues such as timber decay, plaster damage, and poor indoor air quality.
Common causes include:
Poor ventilation
High external ground levels
Defective brickwork or roofing
Condensation build-up
We identify the root cause before recommending any treatment.
Signs of damp in Finchley properties
If your property is affected by moisture, you may notice:
Damp or dark patches on walls
Peeling wallpaper or blistering paint
Salt deposits on plaster (efflorescence)
Musty smells in rooms or cupboards
Rusting nails or damaged skirting boards
These issues are often more advanced than they appear on the surface.
Types of damp we treat in Finchley
Rising Damp
Rising damp occurs when moisture travels up through walls from the ground. It is common in older Finchley properties and requires a proper damp proof course solution.
Penetrating Damp
Caused by external defects such as damaged brickwork, roofing issues, or faulty gutters allowing water ingress.
Condensation & Mould
Often found in modern homes or poorly ventilated flats in areas like N2 and N3, leading to black mould growth and damp surfaces.

Our professional damp surveys provide a full diagnosis of the property, including:

Really friendly and helpful. Super quick response to sort out our problem. Would definitely recommend Micken. A very personal touch and has a lot of knowledge.
Had a bit of mould and a damp wall in my bedroom. Called Micken on Wednesday and the problem was sorted by Friday lunch time. Nice guy, told it how it was and good value - would highly recommend.
I highly recommend Damp Mould Solutions. I received quotes from several other companies, but these guys offered much more realistic pricing with no hidden costs. They completed the job quickly and efficiently. Thank you!
Micken was so helpful and gave us solutions to treat the problem very cost effectively. A really genuine guy who went out of his way to help - very highly recommended.
Had a major damp and mould problem in one of my rooms, and was hesitant to call somebody in due to the usual stories I've heard when dealing with companies that sort out these issues.
Thankfully after a recommendation I contacted Damp and Mould Solutions, Mick came over to the property the next day and gave me straight forward easy to understand advice with a very reasonable quote and time frame.
From the beginning to end it was an absolute pleasure to work with this company. Great time keeping and came in on budget.
The work was completed within the quoted period and all the rubbish was cleared.
I highly recommend these experts to resolve any of your damp and mould issues.
These guys are honest which is hard to find when looking for damp solutions.

We have been using Damp and Mould Solutions for various services over the last few years and I can’t thank them enough. Everyone is happy with them, landlords and tenants state, quality of work, been on time, communication, they providing before and after photos and price for the works completed. Always happy to recommend their services purely because they are so reliable and easy to work with!
Noticed a damp issue in our first floor bedroom and contacted Micken. He was friendly and professional and arrived promptly for the appointment. He carried out a detailed evaluation of the issue, offered sage advice and even recommended a wonderful Roofer (A Whittaker Roofing) to help with the problem. The quote Micken supplied was very reasonable and fair and will be hopefully soon asking him and his team to carry out the works needed.
I spoke to few businesses before because of the damp in the flat I rent. Each time I was getting different answers to my questions and the quotes my landlord couldn’t pay. Micken was friendly, patient and professional from start to end. He was actually listening to what we needed with the great result and job done quickly for the price my landlord was happy with. I would choose Damp & Mould Solutions again for their competence, knowledge, great customer service and a personal touch.
I needed a damp survey carrying out. Micken was recommended and rightly so, professional throughout. His survey was comprehensive and the report was detailed. He took the time to go through his finding in detail and although no further work was required - he provided tips and recommendations on how to prevent damp. Would use again.
Micken and the team have been great, did a survey on a property I'm purchasing. They were more than willing to listen to all my questions, and the overall price of repairs is more reasonable than I expected.
We were having a lot of mould and condensation problems, they came, did a quick but thorough survey of the property and suggested installing a ventilation supply. It made an enormous difference, we used to get noticeable mould growth on the walls every 1-2 weeks, now its been just under two months and theres been no mould whatsoever, and condensation levels have also significantly dropped. We were really worried about the mould so this was a great relief. Very professional and communicative, would highly recommend!
I chose to go with this company due to their patience and professionalism in answering all of my many questions. The work was done promptly and to a very good standard. Highly recommend to others because they are knowledgeable, friendly, very good at managing my tenants and most importantly tidy. Thank you Damp Mould Solutions!
My sister recommended Micken after he did a great job at her tenancy. He was very honest and hardworking and he also gave advice to help keep our elderly parents and small children safe.
