Damp Specialist Report
What is a Damp Specialist Report?
A Damp Specialist Report provides a detailed investigation into the presence, type, severity, and root cause of damp within a property. At CM Housing, our qualified damp specialists use advanced diagnostic tools — including moisture meters, thermal imaging, and humidity analysis — to accurately identify the source of damp issues.
This assessment determines whether the damp is caused by rising damp, penetrating damp, condensation, inadequate ventilation, plumbing leaks, or structural defects.
The report documents the affected areas, the extent of damage, and provides professional recommendations for remedial action.
Our Damp Specialist Reports are designed to support legal housing disrepair cases, landlord-tenant disputes, property management decisions, and early-stage claim investigations.
