Building Performance Diagnostics in Wood Green
Wood Green is a dense, diverse N22 neighbourhood of Victorian and Edwardian terraces, period conversions, ex-council blocks and a large rented sector. Condensation, mould and ventilation in flats are the everyday issues, and we resolve them with measurement, not guesswork.
Investigation only, remedial works, or a complete retrofit — your choice.
RetrofitIQ is not only a diagnostics company. We take projects from first investigation through to verified improvement — and you decide how far we go. Engage us for an investigation on its own, for an investigation plus targeted remedial works, or for a complete building-performance and retrofit project in Wood Green.

The buildings of Wood Green, and how they perform.
Much of Wood Green's housing is solid-wall period stock, heavily subdivided into flats, alongside post-war estate blocks. High occupancy and limited mechanical ventilation routinely push humidity past the point where mould forms on cold solid surfaces.
- Victorian & Edwardian solid-wall terraces
- Period houses converted into flats
- Post-war and ex-council estate blocks
- Landlord-let flats and HMOs
- Modern infill apartment developments
Thermal Imaging Surveys in Wood Green
In Wood Green, thermal imaging shows whether mould is driven by cold surfaces, missing insulation or simply poor ventilation.
- Mapping heat loss through walls, roofs and floors
- Locating missing, slumped or incomplete insulation
- Identifying thermal bridging and cold spots
- Highlighting surfaces at risk of condensation
- Revealing hidden defects behind finishes
Damp, Condensation & Mould Investigations in Wood Green
Our measured condensation and mould investigations give Wood Green owners and landlords a defensible diagnosis and an effective fix.
- Separating condensation from penetrating and rising damp
- Finding mould behind wardrobes, furniture and in cold corners
- Measuring relative humidity, surface temperature and dew point
- Assessing ventilation provision and moisture sources
- Combining thermal imaging with a building-physics review
Heat Loss & Energy Efficiency Surveys in Wood Green
Solid walls, floors and lofts lead heat loss in the terraces; floor-slab bridges lead it in the estate flats.
- Pinpointing where heat escapes — walls, floors, roofs, windows and doors
- Setting fabric-first retrofit priorities in the right order
- Quantifying the impact of each potential improvement
- Assessing heat pump readiness where relevant
- Producing a clear, costed improvement plan
Blower Door Testing & Airtightness in Wood Green
Blower door testing quantifies draughts across Wood Green's converted and let stock.
- Measuring air leakage and uncontrolled heat loss (ACH₅₀)
- Locating draughts with smoke tracing
- Identifying leakage paths through floors, lofts and services
- Guiding targeted airtightness improvements
- Verifying performance before and after retrofit works
Retrofit & Building Physics Advice
We can install effective extract or MVHR, insulate cold surfaces and verify that humidity and comfort actually improve.
- A fabric-first, Passive House-informed approach
- Retrofit advice aligned with PAS 2035 principles
- Internal and external wall insulation risk assessment
- Thermal-bridge reduction and condensation-risk modelling
- A coherent ventilation strategy to protect health and fabric
