Damp & Mould in Brent’s Housing Stock
Brent's rental stock is a mix of inter-war 'Metroland' semis around Kingsbury and Wembley and dense Edwardian terraces in Willesden and Harlesden, with one of London's highest rates of HMO conversion. The 1930s semis have early cavity walls that resist rising damp but suffer condensation where lofts and extensions are under-insulated; the older terraces carry classic solid-wall penetrating damp risk, amplified by multiple-occupancy moisture loads.
