Damp and Mould
Damp and mould can cause problems in your home, especially throughout the Winter months.
If you are struggling with damp and mould, please let us know. Find out more about how we respond to reports, and what you can do to prevent damp and mould here.
Asbestos
We manage asbestos in our properties in accordance with wider health and safety legislation and regulations. Find out what this means here.
Water Safety
Having clean, fresh water is vital for your health and wellbeing.
We manage water safety in your homes by conducting legionella tests regularly. Legionella tests check the quality of water in your home and ensure it is safe for you. If you have any queries about how we conduct these tests, please contact our Customer Services team for more information.
There are a few steps you can take to ensure good water quality in your home, such as:
- Running your taps if you are away from your home for a week or more to flush out the water supply.
- Keeping all showerheads and taps clean and free from limescale build-up.
