The conversation around damp and mould in housing is evolving, and we want to ensure that landlords have the right tools, data, and insights to address these challenges effectively. Last Thursday, the government announced that Awaab’s Law will be enforced for damp and mould in the social rented sector starting from October 2025, with plans to extend this to a wider range of housing hazards by 2026.

This highlights the urgency for landlords to act now and adopt proactive solutions. That’s why DampSmart and Home Connections are excited to introduce the DampSmart Leader Initiative, a unique opportunity to gain firsthand access to advanced property diagnostics and best practices, from a community of landlords (just like you), tenants and contractors.

Our upcoming #ConnectWednesdays webinar— “Damp and Mould in Housing – Are We Addressing It Effectively” will kick off a new era of collaboration with our customers and partners to create and share new ways to protect buildings, provide safer homes for tenants and better outcomes for landlords.
