Damp & Mould in Bootle’s Housing Stock

Bootle's rental stock is largely dense Victorian and Edwardian terraced housing built for Liverpool's dockside industrial workforce, with pockets of post-war and modern infill.

Older, solid-wall terraces close to the docks are prone to penetrating and rising damp, and Bootle falls under Sefton Council's same private-sector damp and mould guidance as Southport.

Landlords and tenants can also report unresolved damp and mould directly to the council: council damp & mould reporting page →
