Professional Damp and Mould Surveys

Mould and damp issues can develop for a range of reasons, from condensation and poor ventilation to structural defects and water ingress. A professional damp survey provides a detailed on-site investigation to determine how moisture is affecting a property.

At Summit Environmental, we carry out damp and mould surveys across Sussex, Surrey and Kent, helping homeowners, landlords and property professionals understand the extent of the issue and the conditions contributing to it.

Our surveys are designed to:

  • Identify visible and hidden signs of damp and mould
  • Assess how moisture is behaving within the property
  • Highlight contributing factors such as ventilation, heating and building condition
  • Provide clear insight into the severity and spread of damp problems
  • Support informed decisions on next steps

By carrying out a thorough survey, we ensure problems are properly understood so we can find the source before any remedial action is taken.

What Happens During a Damp & Mould Survey?

A damp and mould survey involves a structured inspection of the property to assess both visible symptoms and underlying moisture conditions.

During the survey, we typically:

  • Inspect affected areas for mould growth, damp patches and material damage
  • Use a moisture meter to measure moisture levels within walls and surfaces
  • Identify issues such as rising damp, particularly where moisture is moving up from ground level
  • Assess ventilation, airflow and heating patterns within the property
  • Identify sources of moisture such as leaks, condensation or penetrating damp
  • Review building elements including walls, ceilings and insulation performance
  • Use thermal imaging where appropriate to detect hidden moisture patterns
  • Check for signs of a failed or missing damp proof course

This process allows us to build a clear picture of how and why damp and mould are occurring.

Why Damp & Mould Surveys are Important

Without a proper survey, damp and mould problems are often misinterpreted or treated at surface level, leading to ongoing issues.

A professional survey helps to:

  • Distinguish between different types of damp, including condensation and structural issues
  • Identify health risks & damage to the building
  • Reduce the likelihood of recurring mould growth
  • Provide clarity for property owners, landlords and tenants
  • Support appropriate and effective remedial action

For landlords and housing providers, surveys also play an important role in demonstrating that issues have been properly investigated and addressed.
