Damp & Mould in Waltham Forest’s Housing Stock
Waltham Forest's signature stock is the Warner half-house — purpose-built Victorian maisonette pairs unique to Walthamstow, with their own shared-fabric quirks — set among conventional Victorian terraces in Leyton and Leytonstone and inter-war semis towards Chingford. A decade of rapid rental growth since the Overground arrived has intensified occupancy in the solid-walled southern stock, where condensation now dominates complaints; the Warner maisonettes add shared-roof and party-structure penetration issues.
