Landlords, Local Authority & Social Housing Sectors

At Damp Solve UK, we understand the vital role landlords and social housing providers play in safeguarding the health and wellbeing of tenants. Damp and mold are not just structural issues—they're serious health hazards that can profoundly impact the lives of those living in affected properties.

With the introduction of Awaab's Law, addressing damp and mold has become not only a moral responsibility but a legal obligation for social housing providers. The legislation underscores the necessity for swift action in identifying and resolving damp-related issues to ensure tenant safety and prevent potential legal repercussions.

 

Our team at Damp Solve UK is here to support landlords and housing associations every step of the way. From comprehensive damp inspections to detailed reports and cost-effective remedial solutions, we provide the expertise you need to meet your obligations and maintain compliant, safe, and healthy properties. Let us help you protect your tenants and your reputation while ensuring peace of mind for all involved.
