Damp & Mould in Harrow’s Housing Stock
Harrow is the heartland of Metroland: mile after mile of 1920s–30s cavity-wall semis, with pockets of Edwardian terrace around Harrow-on-the-Hill and Wealdstone. A fast-growing rental and HMO market — particularly around Wealdstone and Harrow town centre — puts modern occupancy densities into houses built for single families, so condensation mould in bedrooms and bathrooms is the borough's dominant complaint, with penetrating damp from aging roofs a distant second.
