Damp and mould problems in rented properties are not only frustrating for tenants — they can also be costly and time-consuming for landlords. At Prestige Services, we carry out independent damp and mould reports across Aldbourne, helping property owners understand what’s really going on.
Using infra-red thermal imaging and professional moisture testing, we investigate signs of damp thoroughly and identify the root cause. Our reports are trusted by local landlords and letting agents because they’re clear, unbiased, and tailored to the specific property.
We work across all types of Aldbourne housing, from historic cottages to modern flats, and our knowledge of local building types means we know what to look for. Whether the problem is structural or related to lifestyle factors, we’ll help you find the right solution.
Dealing with repeated complaints about damp or mould can be exhausting for landlords. At Prestige Services, we offer expert, independent assessments that get to the root of the issue and help you take the right steps forward.
Our team understands the types of homes commonly found in Aldbourne, from older stone cottages to newer builds, and how these buildings can be affected by moisture problems. We use specialist tools, including thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters, to accurately detect issues and provide reliable evidence.
We make our reports as clear and user-friendly as possible. Each one is tailored to your property and comes with detailed findings, photographs, and straightforward recommendations. Because we don’t carry out damp treatment work, our inspections remain impartial and focused solely on what’s best for your property and your tenants.
Local landlords trust us for our honest approach, technical accuracy, and fast turnaround. We’re here to help you move from uncertainty to clarity with every inspection.
We carry out a comprehensive inspection using a combination of visual assessment and diagnostic equipment to gather accurate, meaningful data. Our reports typically include:
Using an infra-red thermal imaging camera, we can detect areas of heat loss and cold bridging within walls, ceilings and floors. These cold spots often reveal hidden damp patches, which may not be visible to the eye but contribute to mould growth and poor living conditions.
With a high-precision moisture meter, we take targeted readings across walls, skirting boards and flooring. These readings help to confirm whether damp is being caused by rising damp, penetrating damp, or simply surface condensation due to lifestyle factors.
We evaluate the effectiveness of ventilation systems, extractors and the overall heating setup in the property. Poor ventilation is one of the most common causes of condensation and black mould, particularly in bathrooms, kitchens, and bedrooms.
Every report includes clear photographs of the affected areas, supported by images from our thermal camera. These visuals help landlords, tenants, and contractors better understand the problem and the context.
Our easy-to-follow report outlines the source of damp and mould, the likely cause, and step-by-step recommendations for rectification. Where appropriate, we also include maintenance advice or behavioural recommendations to help prevent future problems.
Many of Aldbourne’s lovely older houses were built before insulation was widely used. Solid walls and older building materials often let in moisture, which becomes a problem during colder, wetter months.
Properties with dated or damaged guttering and downpipes are prone to leaks. Water running down exterior walls can seep inside, particularly during heavy rainfall or freezing conditions, leading to patches of penetrating damp.
Renovated properties often trap warm air inside but have limited ventilation. This causes high humidity levels indoors, especially in kitchens and bathrooms, where condensation and mould can quickly start to develop.
If you're a landlord receiving regular complaints about mould or damp, our reports give you clarity on the source of the issue and a fair recommendation for what to do next.
We help managing agents identify what’s really going on. Our reports are useful when dealing with contractors, tenants, or assessing whether structural work is needed or not.
If you’ve reported mould with no results, our reports provide independent, expert insight into the problem. We help you be heard and provide evidence you can use to request action.
We live and work in the Aldbourne area, so we know the buildings and common problems. That local experience helps us spot patterns and recommend real solutions that suit the property.
Our tools help us dig deeper than a visual check. Moisture meters and thermal imaging give accurate data that reveals where damp is forming and why it’s happening, even if it’s not obvious.
We’re not linked to any treatment company, so we’re not here to sell you fixes. Our job is to give you honest answers you can trust, in a report that’s clear and easy to follow.

No, not always. Condensation from everyday living can lead to mould, especially with poor heating or ventilation. Our report helps determine whether the issue is structural or due to how the property is being used.
