Awaab’s Law – Ensuring Safe, Healthy Homes

Awaab’s Law was introduced following the tragic death of two-year-old Awaab Ishak, caused by prolonged exposure to damp and mould in his family’s home. The law now requires landlords and housing providers to investigate and repair reported damp and mould hazards within strict time limits, ensuring residents live in safe, healthy environments. At C. Wood Surveys Ltd, we fully support the principles of Awaab’s Law — providing impartial, evidence-based surveys that help identify root causes, guide compliance, and protect both residents and property owners from future risk.

Professional guidance-withoiut the conflict of interest from remedial sales.
