Damp & Mould in Newham’s Housing Stock
Newham has the highest household overcrowding in England, a huge private rental sector, and one of London's most intensive HMO markets — nearly all of it in dense Victorian and Edwardian terraces from Forest Gate to East Ham. Extreme occupancy density is the borough's defining damp driver: moisture generation far beyond what solid-walled terraces can passively handle makes condensation mould Newham's dominant housing hazard. Stratford's new-build towers add a separate, airtightness-driven ventilation caseload.
