Damp Proofing CRST Approved Surveys in Ealing
Ealing’s Victorian terraces, Edwardian semis and 1930s mock-Tudor houses carry damp risks unique to their age and construction. Our CSRT-qualified specialists have been solving damp problems across W5, W3 and W13 for over 15 years.
Why Ealing Properties Are Particularly Prone to Damp
Ealing’s housing stock is dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces built between 1880 and 1914 — solid 9-inch brick construction with original damp-proof courses (DPCs) now well over a century old. These DPCs were typically slate or engineering brick, and most are now failing or have been bridged by raised garden paths, cement renders or tarmac drives.
The 1930s mock-Tudor semis in areas like Northfields and Hanwell face different problems: cavity walls beginning to show signs of tie-bar corrosion and failing lead flashings around bay windows, while their lower ground-floor rooms often suffer rising damp from poor sub-floor ventilation.
Common causes we diagnose in Ealing properties include: original DPCs bridged by modern paving; blocked sub-floor air bricks; failed pointing on solid brick walls; cracked or missing lead flashings; and inadequate ventilation causing persistent condensation — particularly in converted flats.
