Questions about damp, mould and HHSRS repairs in Warwick
Is damp always rising damp?
No. In shared houses condensation is the most common cause, because of cooking, showers and drying clothes. We find the cause before recommending any treatment.
Which postcodes in Warwick do you work in?
All of them, including CV32, CV34 and CV35, and the surrounding parts of Warwickshire.
Does a shared house in Warwick need an HMO licence?
In England, a mandatory licence is needed for 5 or more people from 2 or more households. Smaller HMOs can need a licence where the council runs additional licensing, which is common in towns with many shared houses. Check the council’s website for the address.
