What the Property Survey Covers

Our property surveys are designed for  social housing providers and landlords, focusing on the vital steps needed to meet legal obligations under Awaab’s Law and beyond.

During the survey, we will:

  • Thoroughly evaluate the condition of the property for damp, mould, and condensation concerns.
  • Assess ventilation performance and benchmark all results against Building Regulations (Approved Document F) to identify non-compliance.
  • Identify any structural or environmental causes of dampness and mould development.
  • Offer tailored recommendations for lasting solutions to maintain a healthy living environment.

Our team is highly trained to address these challenges professionally, providing assistance that goes beyond just identifying the problem—we’ll also help you resolve it.

If issues are identified, our recommendations will include immediate actions to bring the property into legal compliance and prevent further risks to tenant health. Repairs must be carried out within the legal timeframes set out in Awaab’s Law.

Under Awaab’s Law, landlords are required to resolve emergency hazards, including damp and mould, within 24 hours of identification. Other repairs must follow legal deadlines to ensure compliance.

While it’s ideal for tenants to be present during the survey for easier access to all parts of the property, it’s not strictly necessary. Arrangements can be made for surveys without tenant attendance if preferred.
