We built this company for Awaab's Law.

Awaab's Law places a duty on social landlords to investigate and address damp and mould in the homes they manage. ABM Contracting has traded since 2004; we formed Mould & Damp Solutions in 2025 specifically for this work.

Certification held

City & Guilds Certificate in Mould and Damp

Enables us to carry out mould and damp surveys in accordance with Awaab's Law and current industry best practice.

From survey to completed works
  1. Survey

    Carried out in accordance with Awaab's Law, establishing the root cause before any work is scoped.

  2. Written report

    Findings, the identified cause, and practical recommendations.

  3. Remedial works

    The works identified by that report, carried out by the same team.

Housing Ombudsman findings

The Ombudsman has made over 100 findings of severe maladministration on damp and mould, a topic it describes as now dominating half of its casework.

Our damp & mould surveys

So residents get a home that is safe and healthy to live in.

We establish the cause before any work is scoped.

Full property surveys by qualified surveyors. Three measurements, taken on site, to identify what is actually causing the damp.

Moisture readings
How much moisture is held in the fabric of the building, and exactly where it sits.
Thermographic imaging
Where surfaces run cold. Cold spots are where condensation forms.
Psychrometric analysis
Air temperature, humidity and dew point, which separates condensation from penetrating or rising damp.
Written report
Findings, the identified cause, and a recommended scope of works.

A single, accountable contractor for your entire property programme.

One team, accountable from survey to sign-off.
