Damp Survey Report: What's Included & Why It Matters
Our structured survey reports go beyond basic damp surveys. See exactly how evidence-based findings, risk levels, and recommended remedial actions are documented.
Most damp reports are brief and unclear. Our survey reports are structured, evidence-based, and designed for real decision-making.

We provide two types of structured survey report — one for domestic property owners and one for housing providers and social landlords. Both follow the same evidence-based methodology, but housing provider reports include compliance-focused risk classification and action timescales aligned with Awaab's Law.

Why Structured Reports Matter
A damp survey report isn't just a summary of what was found — it's a structured, evidence-based document designed to provide clarity on the root cause of moisture problems and the appropriate remedial response.
For housing providers, this means compliance-ready documentation aligned with Awaab's Law. For private clients, it means clear, defensible findings that support informed decision-making.
What's Included in Every Survey Report

- Scope and methodology of the survey
- Environmental readings (temperature, humidity, dew point)

- Photographic evidence of all findings
- Root cause diagnosis — not assumption-based conclusions
- Risk level classification (Category 1, 2, or 3)
