Root Cause Analysis

Root Cause Mould, Condensation & Damp Property Surveys

Finding the root cause to any problem is an essential step to rectifying the issue long-term. Mould, condensation, damp, structural inadequacies and other problems within a residential property can lead to tenants facing harm to their health, which is why our independent root cause analysis experts can find credible solutions.

If you find yourself questioning why there is a reoccurring theme with ‘fixes’ coming back, the issue may lie with the root cause problem not being resolved at source.

Your Independent Partner for Root Cause Analysis

The root cause analysis survey process embraces external and internal aspects of a structure with photographic evidence where a potential or existing element is or can develop/contribute to an existing or future issue. Surveys that identify the problem at source, includes qualitative and quantitative data gathering where they are deemed pertinent to securing a fact-based outcome for interested parties and any cost effective repairs.

The un-biased, transparent surveying process is also suitable for new-builds to ensure the structure is ready for occupation with recognisable guidance of installed aspects and their optimisation.

50 Word Tips

 

April

 

Mould on surfaces tends to emit a pattern that aids understanding “why there and not over there”? Spores are in the air all the time and they need a stable period to settle and develop hence, opening windows and doors across the property for a short time serves to break the cycle and reduce the outbreak potential.

Tip: Air ‘circulates’ a room with corners being less mobile hence spores tend to reside where its cooler and less disturbed leading to the patterns witnessed. Changing the air during the winter can enable drier air to enter and replace the wetter internal air.
