Checklist of Indicators of Potential Damp & Mould Problems

This Damp & Mould Indicators checklist can be used by a landlord and letting agent prior to renting out a property to help identify potential issues with damp and/or mould in a dwelling. Where indicators are present, the landlord and/or letting agent should take steps to get a damp specialist to investigate and rectify any problems prior to a tenant moving in to avoid potential tenant disputes. 

It serves as a valuable resource for residential landlords and managing agents, aiding in the proactive management of potential damp and mould issues before they escalate. 

A simple walkthrough of checks pre-tenancy can help identify potential issues so these can be dealt with pre-occupation.
