FINDING THE CAUSE
Damp and mould can come from condensation, leaks, rising or penetrating damp, or a combination. Treating visible mould without understanding the cause means it comes back. Our surveys focus on why the problem is there.
WHAT OUR SURVEYS COVER
The location and extent of the damp or mould
Investigation of likely causes
Recommended remedial works
Further checks where needed
Where the cause is not clear from a visual survey, we can carry out more detailed investigation, including intrusive inspection and thermal imaging.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
The findings can inform a standalone repair programme or feed into a wider retrofit design, so improvements such as insulation and airtightness do not make moisture problems worse.
WHO IT IS FOR
Housing associations, councils and private landlords dealing with damp and mould, including those preparing for Awaab’s Law. Read Damp and mould: root-cause diagnostics vs cosmetic fixes and What are my responsibilities for damp and mould as a landlord?
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Can retrofit cause damp and mould?
It can if insulation, airtightness and ventilation are not designed together. Our article How to achieve EPC C without creating damp explains how to avoid it.
