Legal Damp & Mould Disrepair Surveys

Trusted by leading organisations across housing, commercial & public sectors.

Legal Disrepair Surveys

We provide independent Legal Disrepair Surveys for housing providers, supporting legal and compliance processes with clear, professional reporting.

Our team of highly experienced and qualified surveyors are dedicated to providing independent and concise expert witness reports, identifying remedial repairs and defects which may fall under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 (section 11), Homes (fitness for human habitation) act 2018 and Awaab's law 2025, within residential properties, to aid the early settlement of legal disrepair claims.

Each report complies with CPR part 35, inclusive of scott scheduling to ensure court compliance and promote fairness, efficiency and reliability.

Scott schedules can be formulated to a specific schedule of rates (SORS), which can be utilised to raise an immediate work instruction to your contractor.

Disrepair cases arise when issues have escalated — often following repeated complaints, failed repairs or prolonged tenant dissatisfaction. In these situations, accurate and impartial assessment is essential.
