Hammersmith’s Housing Stock
Hammersmith has a mixed housing stock, dominated by Victorian and Edwardian terraces, many of which have since been converted into flats and some mansion blocks in Brook Green and Ravenscourt.
Solid-floor damp and rising damp are very common in these types of homes, as they were built without a damp-proof membrane. Mansion flats and period conversions have their own problems, often due to shared party walls, altered ventilation and penetrating damp from old external walls.
Some lower-ground and semi-basement conversions, which are also common in larger period terraces, typically require basement waterproofing and tanking. These places, usually owned and let privately, need extra care from landlords, which Kenwood can provide.
