Frequently Asked Questions
What is a damp and mould inspection form?
A structured record of a damp and mould survey in a home. It covers the tenant's report and history, the condition of each room, the likely type of damp, moisture readings, ventilation, heating, building defects and the actions agreed, including the follow-up visit.
What are the main types of damp?
Condensation forms when moist indoor air meets cold surfaces, often on windows and external walls. Penetrating damp comes from water getting in through defects such as blocked gutters, cracked render or failed seals. Rising damp comes up from the ground, usually low on ground-floor walls. Plumbing leaks can look similar, so the cause should be confirmed before repairs are ordered.
Is damp and mould always caused by how a home is lived in?
No. Building defects, poor ventilation, heating that does not work and cold spots can all cause or worsen damp and mould. Living conditions such as drying clothes indoors can add moisture, which is why the form records them as observations, alongside the building's condition, rather than as blame.
What happens after the survey?
Each finding gets a likely cause, a priority and an action, such as repairing a defect, improving ventilation, mould treatment by a suitable contractor or a specialist survey. Advice given to the tenant is recorded, and a follow-up visit confirms the work was done and the damp and mould has not returned.
Does this form cover the landlord's legal requirements?
It gives you a clear record of the survey and the actions agreed, which supports those requirements. The duties themselves depend on the country and the type of tenancy, and social landlords in England have specific duties on damp and mould. Check current government guidance for the requirements that apply to your homes.
What is a damp and mould inspection form?
Quick Answer
A damp and mould inspection form records damp and mould in a home room by room. The surveyor notes where mould is visible and how far it extends, the likely type of damp, moisture readings, ventilation and heating, building defects and living conditions, then agrees the repairs, advice and follow-up visit needed.
A damp and mould inspection form gives housing surveyors and landlords one consistent record of a damp and mould case. It starts with what the tenant has reported and the history of the property, then works room by room: visible mould, staining, damaged decoration and belongings, and a musty smell. For each affected area the surveyor records the likely type of damp, whether condensation, penetrating damp, rising damp or a plumbing leak, so the right repair is ordered rather than a repeat mould wash.
Ventilation, heating and building defects are checked alongside living conditions, which are recorded as observations without blame. The form supports assessment against applicable UK housing standards, such as the Housing Health and Safety Rating System in England. Social landlords in England also have specific duties to investigate and fix damp and mould hazards, often referred to as Awaab's Law; check current government guidance for the requirements and timescales that apply to you.
Why does damp and mould come back after it has been treated?
The bedroom wall is washed down and repainted, and six weeks later the mould is back. The cause was never recorded: a blocked gutter feeding penetrating damp, or an extractor fan that stopped working two winters ago.
Without a room-by-room record of the damp type, defects and actions agreed, each visit starts again from the tenant's report.
Before and After InspectWrk
Before InspectWrk
- Damp and mould reports are closed after a mould wash, with no cause recorded.
- Only the room the tenant mentioned is looked at.
- Advice to the tenant is given verbally and never recorded.
After InspectWrk
- Every room is surveyed with photos, the likely damp type and moisture readings.
- Building defects, ventilation and heating are checked alongside living conditions.
- Repairs, advice and the follow-up visit are recorded and tracked to completion.
Why is a damp and mould inspection form important?
Treating the mould without finding the cause means it comes back. A structured survey helps you:
- Find the cause:each affected area is linked to a likely type of damp and any building defect.
- Record the whole home:every room is checked, not just the one the tenant reported.
- Avoid blame:living conditions are recorded as observations alongside ventilation, heating and defects.
- Follow through:actions, advice given and the follow-up visit are recorded in one place.
What should be included in a damp and mould inspection form?
A complete damp and mould survey covers:
Report and history
- What prompted the survey and the rooms surveyed
- What the tenant reported and how long it has been present
- Previous repairs or mould treatment
Condition and cause
- Visible mould by room, with its extent and a photo
- Staining, damaged decoration and affected belongings
- Likely type of damp and moisture readings
- Ventilation, heating, building defects and living conditions
Actions
- Each finding with its likely cause and priority
- Repairs, ventilation improvements, treatment or specialist survey needed
- Advice given to the tenant
- The follow-up visit date
How do teams use a damp and mould inspection form?
Complete the form during the visit:
- Record the property, household reference, what prompted the survey and the rooms surveyed.
- Note what the tenant reports and any previous repairs or treatment.
- Survey each room for mould, staining and damage, and record the likely type of damp.
- Check ventilation, heating and building defects, and take moisture readings.
- Agree the actions, record the advice given and book the follow-up visit.
