Damp Surveys in Fulham
Fulham is one of London's great Victorian terrace neighbourhoods — mile after mile of two- and three-storey brick terraces, including the famous 'Alphabet streets' and the Peterborough Estate. These homes are hugely popular with families, and their age and construction make damp one of the most common concerns for buyers and owners in SW6.

Common Damp Issues in Fulham
Rising damp in terraced walls
Fulham's Victorian terraces frequently show rising damp where the original DPC has failed or been bridged by raised external ground levels and modern patios.
Cellar damp
Many Fulham terraces have small cellars that suffer ground moisture and poor ventilation, a common finding when owners look to use them for storage or conversion.
Condensation in flat conversions
Terraces divided into flats often lack adequate extraction and heating balance, producing condensation and black mould, especially in rear extensions.
