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.

Which rules apply in Bromsgrove?

The government's September 2023 guidance, Damp and mould: understanding and addressing the health risks for rented housing providers, tells landlords to look for and fix the underlying causes, such as ventilation, insulation, heating and repair, rather than putting damp and mould down to tenants' lifestyles. The reformed Decent Homes Standard adds a new criterion that homes must be free from damp and mould.
