To equip housing providers with everything they need to battle condensation, Safeguard Europe is proud to offer “Condensation in Buildings” — a one-hour CPD seminar approved by the Royal Institute of British Architects.
Awareness around mould and damp amongst housing tenants is at an all-time high. A spotlight by the Housing Ombudsman highlighted the need for all housing providers to ‘adopt a zero tolerance approach to damp and mould interventions’.
It is not enough to simply blame mould problems on ‘lifestyle choices’. All good property managers require the know-how to correctly diagnose and deliver practical advice and solutions.
The Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 requires new-build and rental properties to be free from dampness. While not every damp problem is structural, housing providers must be empathetic to the sometimes-embarrassing damp problems tenants face. Despite this, a YouGov poll commissioned by Safeguard Europe found that 51% of tenants have suffered damp or mould problems.
For housing providers to deliver damp-free homes, understanding condensation is key. Learn how to diagnose the causes of condensation for different types of property and offer appropriate methods of practical, real-world treatment.
Devised in-house by the experts at Safeguard Laboratory, the CPD offers scientifically proven and verified solutions to excess condensation issues that scale to budget, timescale and severity. Discover a range of anti-condensation materials, technologies and behaviours.
Safeguard offers a wide range of RIBA-approved Continuing Professional Development seminars. These are delivered free of charge to equip the housing management industry with the knowledge they need to offer safe, dry and legally compliant housing. Training can be delivered remotely, at a place of your choosing or at Safeguard HQ in Horsham, West Sussex.
Choose from ‘Penetrating Damp: Causes & Treatments’, ‘Rising Damp: Causes & Treatments’, ‘Dealing with Dampness’ and more.
