Damp and Mould

Damp & Mould Remediation, Protecting Homes, Health & Compliance

At Modex Management, we understand the serious impact damp and mould can have on both property condition and occupant health. With the introduction of Awaab’s Law (coming into effect October 2025), the responsibility to act swiftly and effectively on damp and mould reports has never been greater, and that’s where our expertise makes all the difference.

Our team is trained to Level 3 in Damp and Mould Assessment and Remediation, enabling us to accurately diagnose root causes, implement long-term solutions, and ensure compliance with the latest housing standards and legislation.

Awaab’s Law, What It Means

Awaab’s Law mandates strict timeframes for social landlords to investigate and resolve reported cases of damp and mould. Failure to act within these periods may result in enforcement action, fines, and reputational damage. The law is designed to protect tenants from unsafe living conditions, and demands a proactive, evidence-based approach from landlords and managing agents.

At Modex, we partner with housing providers, private landlords, and managing agents to deliver fully compliant, end-to-end damp and mould management solutions that meet the requirements of Awaab’s Law and exceed resident expectations.

Our Comprehensive Service Includes:

Initial Condition Surveys & Risk Assessments

Detailed property inspections using moisture mapping, thermal imaging, and hygrometer readings to determine root causes (condensation, penetration, rising damp, or structural defects).

Root Cause Analysis & Reporting

Clear, data-driven reports that outline the source of moisture ingress, contributory factors, and recommended remedial actions, written in line with PAS 2035 and HHSRS (Housing Health and Safety Rating System) principles.

Remedial Works & Eradication

Safe and effective cleaning and treatment using antimicrobial biocides, air purification, and physical repairs (including ventilation improvements, insulation, and damp-proofing systems).

Resident Communication & Education

Engaging with tenants in plain language to explain causes, treatments, and preventative maintenance, supporting long-term behavioural change and compliance.

Post-Remediation Verification

Follow-up inspections, air quality testing, and photographic evidence to verify complete eradication and prevent recurrence.

Ongoing Monitoring & Maintenance Plans

Scheduled re-inspections and data capture to ensure sustainable outcomes and continued compliance.
