Properties in Southwick
Southwick is a small town between Portslade and Shoreham, with a mix of Victorian terraces around the old village green, inter-war housing on the surrounding streets, and post-war development further out. The variety of housing means we encounter a range of damp issues typical of each era of construction.
Common Damp Issues in Southwick
Rising damp in the Victorian terraces, penetrating damp in the inter-war housing (particularly where render has failed), and condensation in the post-war properties are the most common issues. Some properties near the harbour area have elevated ground moisture due to the proximity to the River Adur.
