Damp and Mould Inspection Checklist

by Clifford Dunmore, from the Community

20+

This damp and mould inspection checklist helps surveyors and property professionals assess moisture problems across residential and small commercial buildings. It guides users through client instructions, property details, weather and orientation, and lifestyle factors that affect humidity. The checklist covers thorough external and internal inspections including DPC condition, render bridging, roof leaks, gutters and downpipes, glazing seals, ventilation, and high ground levels. Internally it reviews signs of penetrating and rising damp, condensation and mould, plaster bridging, floor membranes, rot, insect activity, loft access and condition, and ventilation. It also prompts the use of surveying tools such as hygrometers, infrared thermometers, damp meters, and thermal imaging, with space to record findings, photos, and recommended remedial actions.

Damp and Mould Survey Checklist
This Damp and Mould Survey template helps inspectors, housing officers, and landlords assess and document damp conditions across a property. It explains key causes including humidity, condensation, and rain penetration, then guides a structured survey: external conditions, building type and roof details, loft access and insulation, heating systems and controls, occupancy, and room-by-room analysis. Capture humidity, temperature, dew point, cold surface checks, ventilation performance, window and radiator status, and evidence of mould or penetrating damp. Record defects, likely causes, and prioritize remediation to protect residents and the building.

Verify extractor fans in kitchens and bathrooms, check for visible signs of damp or mould, describe required works, attach photo evidence, and note additional repairs. Cover hallways, lounges, dining rooms, bedrooms, and other areas, then capture tenant acknowledgement and signatures for a clear record of actions agreed.
