Mould, Damp & Condensation: More Than Just a Household Problem

When you live with black mould on your walls, leaks from ceilings, or persistent damp, the damage goes beyond appearance.

Health Problems

Coughs, breathing issues, and skin irritation affecting you and your family.

Property Damage

Damage to furniture, clothing and flooring that shouldn't be your responsibility.

Poor Living Conditions

Cold, uncomfortable conditions that affect your well-being and quality of life.

If you've reported the problem to your landlord and nothing has been done, that's not acceptable — and it's not your fault.

Under UK housing law, your landlord has a legal duty to fix these issues within a reasonable time.

Mould or damp caused by poor ventilation or leaks

Condensation ruining walls, carpets or furniture
Health issues linked to long-term damp or mould exposure

Some Example For Compensation

– Marten Walters

"If you're looking for a party that knows what they're doing and delivers real results, you have to come to them. She told us that it was possible without any headaches, and we were a bit hesitant about it. It was only after the pleasant telephone conversation and the explanation delivered at our home, we realized that it was possible. We're very satisfied!"

– Becky Bormann

"After a personal advice over the phone, a nice professional came by. Everything was discussed well and we are happy with the service"

You have the right to live in a safe, habitable home — and if your landlord has failed to act, you have the right to hold them accountable.
