Damp and mould remediation in a social home

How do we deliver it?

Where a cause sits outside the home, such as a gutter, a roof or a communal leak, we price that work too, because the mould inside will come back if it is left.

Awaab's Law (the Hazards in Social Housing (Prescribed Requirements) (England) Regulations 2025) has applied to social landlords since 27 October 2025. Emergency hazards must be investigated and made safe within 24 hours.
