Damp Survey Lewisham

Damp Survey in Lewisham

Lewisham's housing is a dense mix of Victorian terraces across Brockley, Ladywell and Forest Hill, inter-war stock in Catford, and large ex-local-authority blocks — with the borough's clay subsoil and mature tree cover adding subsidence-adjacent moisture patterns. Our Lewisham damp surveys are structured, independent and evidence-led — written for buyers, homeowners, landlords, leaseholders and managing agents who need a report that stands up to lender, disrepair and HHSRS scrutiny.

What Your Survey Includes

  • Full internal and external inspection tailored to Lewisham property types
  • Calibrated Protimeter moisture profiling across affected walls and floors
  • FLIR thermal imaging for cold-bridging, party-wall and shared-envelope issues
  • Humidity, temperature and dew-point readings to model condensation risk
  • Photographic PDF report with clear findings and prioritised recommendations

Common Problems We Find

  • Rising damp misdiagnosis on Victorian terraces with bridged DPCs
  • Persistent condensation in converted flats with single-aspect ventilation
  • Penetrating damp through failed pointing on exposed south-west elevations
  • Cold-bridging mould in ex-LA blocks across Deptford, New Cross and Downham
