Damp Problems Are One of the Top Headaches for London Landlords
Whether you manage one flat or a portfolio of properties, dealing with damp issues in London rentals is one of the most stressful — and legally risky — parts of being a landlord.
Between tenant complaints, repair costs, and potential enforcement from local councils, there’s no room for guesswork.
That’s why landlords across the city turn to us for professional damp surveys in London — reports that are clear, detailed, and trusted to get to the bottom of the problem.
Why a Professional Damp Survey Matters More Than Ever
Here’s what a damp survey can help you with:
Resolve tenant complaints quickly and professionally
Avoid disputes over rent payments and repair obligations
Comply with the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018
Provide clear, independent evidence in case of legal action
Accurately identify the type of damp and its root cause
Whether it’s rising damp from a failed DPC, penetrating damp from ageing brickwork, or condensation due to poor ventilation, only a proper damp survey will confirm the issue — and the right fix.
Why Landlords Choose Us for Damp Surveys in London
We don’t offer generic, tick-box inspections. Our damp surveys are designed specifically with London landlords in mind — properties that are older, tenanted, and often under scrutiny.
What you get with our service:
Detailed Written Report
Each survey includes a fully written, jargon-free report that you can share with tenants, managing agents, legal teams, or insurers.
Thorough Property Inspection
We spend approximately 3 hours per property, inspecting internally and externally, using moisture meters, thermal imaging, and physical checks.
Independent Expert Diagnosis
We never sell damp-proofing services, so our assessment is unbiased and focused on what’s best for the property — not what’s most profitable.
Evidence that Stands Up
Our reports have helped landlords:
Prove they acted responsibly
Challenge rent repayment claims
Avoid unnecessary or incorrect repairs
Identify hidden problems missed by £3,000 HomeBuyers Surveys, as confirmed by our own clients
London Area Expertise
We survey properties across all London boroughs — from Hackney and Camden to Islington and Lewisham — and understand the quirks of period homes, conversions, and new-build flats alike.
Don't Rely on Free Checks or Quick Fixes
Many landlords rely on:
Free contractor quotes
Basic visual inspections
Paint-over solutions for mould
But these don’t hold up if the issue worsens or ends up in legal territory. Without a proper damp survey, you’re risking your time, money, and tenant trust.
Who We Work With
We regularly carry out damp surveys for landlords who:
Have received complaints from tenants
Are preparing for council inspections
Want to prevent future issues in their properties
Manage HMOs, conversions, or leasehold flats with shared responsibilities
Whether you’re self-managing or work with a letting agent, we provide clear documentation you can rely on.
