Knowle is a semi-rural village nestled between Fareham and Wickham in southeast Hampshire, known for its quiet character and strong sense of community. The area features a mix of Victorian terraced homes, 1960s–80s suburban properties, and newer executive residences, many with original lime mortar and lath-and-plaster walls requiring specialist care. Located approximately 15 miles from Southampton and 5 miles from Gosport, Knowle combines village tranquility with convenient access to larger urban centres.
Damp and salt efflorescence are common in older Knowle properties due to Hampshire's clay-heavy soil and the village's proximity to coastal moisture. Modern PO17 homes frequently develop drywall cracks near windows and door frames caused by settlement and seasonal timber movement.
Many older Knowle properties benefit from selective repair rather than full replacement—lime-mortar patching and skim coating can restore period walls without altering their character. However, properties with water damage, mould penetration, or structural movement often require full plasterboard replacement for safety and longevity.
