Housing Compliance
Damp & mould inspections that protect tenants and landlords.
Walk through the property, describe what you see. AnyInspect captures damp readings, photographs, and your commentary — then generates a complete report with a prioritised action plan.
Damp and mould are a legal liability. Your documentation can't afford gaps.
Awaab's Law now requires social landlords to investigate and remediate damp and mould within strict timeframes. Incomplete inspections and slow reporting put tenants at risk and expose landlords to enforcement action.
- Manual inspections miss critical evidence — moisture readings, ventilation data, and construction details that prove root cause.
- Awaab's Law timeframes mean you can't afford to spend three hours writing up every damp report.
- Inconsistent inspections across a team make it impossible to monitor damp and mould trends across your housing portfolio.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about damp and mould inspections, Awaab's Law, and how AnyInspect helps you document and resolve issues faster.
What types of damp does AnyInspect help you inspect?
AnyInspect supports inspections for all three main types of damp: rising damp, penetrating damp, and condensation damp. The template prompts you to assess each type, record moisture readings, and document the likely cause so your report clearly distinguishes between them.
How does AnyInspect help with Awaab's Law compliance?
Awaab's Law requires social landlords to investigate damp and mould complaints within 14 days and begin remediation within a further 7 days. AnyInspect eliminates the reporting bottleneck by generating your inspection report on the same day as the site visit, giving you more time to plan and start remedial work within the legal timeframe.
What are a landlord's obligations around damp and mould?
Landlords must keep the structure and exterior of the property in repair, ensure adequate ventilation and heating, and respond promptly to reports of damp or mould. Under Awaab's Law and the Housing Act 2004, social landlords face strict investigation and remediation deadlines. AnyInspect helps you document your response with timestamped evidence that proves you acted within the required timeframes.
What does AnyInspect record during a damp inspection?
AnyInspect captures video, audio commentary, and photographs as you walk through the property. You can log damp meter readings, hygrometer data, construction details, insulation type, heating systems, extractor fans, and trickle vents. Everything is transcribed and organised room by room into a structured report.
How does a damp inspection link to the HHSRS?
Damp and mould growth is a recognised hazard under the Housing Health and Safety Rating System. AnyInspect automatically flags potential Category 1 and Category 2 hazards related to damp, excess cold, and mould, linking your findings to the relevant HHSRS risk categories so the report is ready for enforcement action if needed.
Can AnyInspect track remediation after the inspection?
Yes. Once your report is generated with a prioritised action plan, you can track which remedial works have been completed, record follow-up inspections, and maintain a full audit trail. This is essential for demonstrating compliance with Awaab's Law timeframes and Decent Homes Standard requirements.
Is the evidence strong enough for enforcement proceedings?
AnyInspect produces timestamped, GPS-tagged photographic and video evidence linked to specific rooms and defect categories. Reports include moisture readings, surveyor commentary, and hazard scoring. This level of documentation is designed to stand up in enforcement proceedings, tribunal hearings, and disrepair claims.
How much does AnyInspect cost?
Plans start at £59 per month for individual surveyors, with Professional and Enterprise tiers for larger teams. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial with no credit card required, so you can test the full damp and mould workflow before committing.
