Leak Detection, Trace & Access & Mould Treatment in Stoneleigh
Our engineers find hidden leaks in Stoneleigh homes without tearing them apart, investigate damp and mould properly, and write the report your insurer asks for — across KT17 and KT19.
Why Stoneleigh homes get damp, mould and hidden leaks
Stoneleigh was built almost entirely in the 1930s as a commuter suburb around its station, so the housing is remarkably consistent: street after street of bay-fronted interwar semi-detached and detached houses on the former Stoneleigh Estate. That consistency means we see the same faults again and again. The bay windows are a classic weak point, and we regularly trace leaks where the bay roof meets the main wall. On the pitched roofs it is slipped tiles and failed valleys, and in solid-floor kitchens and rear extensions it is concealed pipe leaks. Cold bathrooms and unventilated rear rooms bring condensation mould. We diagnose the real cause first rather than guessing.
Ageing 1930s roofs, pipes and extensions
Stoneleigh’s houses are now around ninety years old, and much of the original roofing, pointing and pipework is reaching the end of its life. A lot of homes have also had rear and side extensions added over the decades, and the junction where a newer extension meets the original 1930s brickwork is a very common place for water to get in. We use thermal imaging and moisture mapping to find exactly where a leak is coming from, so you fix the actual fault and not the stain on the ceiling.

StoneleighFAQ
Can you find a leak without smashing the house up? Yes — that is the point of professional leak detection. We use thermal imaging, acoustic listening and moisture mapping to pinpoint it, then open up only the spot that matters.
My 1930s bay window keeps leaking — can you find the cause? Yes. The join where the bay roof meets the main wall is one of the most common leak points in Stoneleigh’s interwar semis. We trace it precisely rather than replacing things on guesswork.
The leak seems to be where our extension meets the old house — can you check? Yes. The junction between a newer extension and original 1930s brickwork is a classic weak spot here. We map the moisture to confirm the source before any opening up.
Will my insurance pay for the work? Trace and access may be covered under buildings insurance, depending on the policy. We provide insurance-ready reports and evidence to support the claim.
How fast can you get to Stoneleigh? Stoneleigh is close to our New Malden base, so we can usually attend KT17 and KT19 the same day, and we run genuine 24/7 emergency call-outs.
