Damp & Mould Action Plans

Why Commission a Dedicated Action Plan?

Recent guidance from the Regulator of Social Housing and Housing Ombudsman expects landlords to maintain proactive damp and mould strategies. Our independent action plans bring together diagnostics, resident liaison and programme management so you can evidence compliance and keep homes healthy.

• Objective investigations: On-site inspections, moisture profiling and ventilation testing carried out by an impartial surveyor.
• Clear prioritisation: Repairs ranked by risk to resident health, structural integrity and statutory obligations.
• Auditable reporting: Board-ready documentation with timelines, responsible parties and budget considerations.

What the Service Includes

1. Portfolio review: Desk study of housing types, complaint history and previous contractor reports to identify high-risk assets.
2. Site inspections: Targeted damp & mould surveys or damp and timber inspections complete with photographic evidence and moisture readings.
3. Monitoring plan: Deployment of data loggers, ventilation testing and follow-up checks to confirm improvements.
4. Action roadmap: Prioritised works schedule with quick wins, medium-term projects and strategic asset management recommendations.
5. Resident engagement toolkit: Communication templates and advice to keep tenants informed throughout remedial programmes.

Damp and mould compliance does not end when repairs are complete. We provide quarterly or annual reviews, update dashboards with new moisture data and brief contractors so lessons learned are embedded across your estate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common queries about our damp and mould action plan service:

Do you produce documentation suitable for regulator reviews?

Yes. Each action plan includes photographic evidence, moisture data, remedial recommendations and progress tracking tables so it can be shared with boards, the Housing Ombudsman or local authorities.

Can you coordinate follow-up inspections?

We schedule review visits or remote data analysis to evidence improvements, update residents and refine remedial priorities over time.

Will tenants need to move out?

Most surveys and monitoring take place with tenants in situ. If intrusive repairs are required we outline decant considerations and coordinate with your housing management team.

Do you cover properties outside Flintshire and Cheshire?
