Mould Removal in Hillingdon

Damp & Mould in Hillingdon’s Housing Stock

Hillingdon's housing story is shaped by Heathrow: strong rental and HMO demand from airport workers concentrates in the inter-war terraces and semis of Hayes, West Drayton, and Uxbridge's fringes, while Ruislip and Northwood remain classic Metroland. High occupancy in the airport corridor puts heavy moisture loads on 1930s fabric, and the borough's post-war council stock around Hayes adds flat-roof and cold-bridge problems of its own.
