Moisture 101

Why Damp and Mould Build Up

Most mould issues start with excess moisture — often caused by everyday household activities. Even well-maintained homes can face moisture overload when ventilation is inadequate.

Without proper ventilation and moisture control, this vapour settles on cold surfaces, turning into condensation — and creating the perfect breeding ground for mould. That’s why GME’s service targets both cause and consequence, combining treatment with long-term prevention.

Supporting Safer Homes Under Awaab’s Law (2025)

GME Group welcomes the introduction of Awaab’s Law, a pivotal reform mandating timely action on damp and mould in social housing from October 2025. This legislation honours the memory of Awaab Ishak and puts greater accountability on housing providers to act fast, and fairly, when mould is reported.

We’re proud to support this change by helping our partners:



Respond quickly with compliant treatment plans



Carry out sensitive works in occupied homes



Document and report all remediation for audit purposes



Support housing officers under new regulatory frameworks

Let’s work together to create healthier homes and meet your compliance goals with confidence.

“Made a stressful situation easy to deal with.” The GME team were brilliant when they came to treat mould in my flat. They explained everything before starting, used dust sheets, cleaned up after themselves and even helped me move furniture back.

GME Painting Contractors successfully secured a place on the Berneslai Homes “Repairs, Maintenance and Minor Works Framework” in 2023 through a competitive bidding process. Due to internal changes within Berneslai Homes, work wasn’t allocated under the framework until early 2024. Since beginning a working relationship with GME for the mould removal, and painting & decorating services, we have successfully cleared the backlog of jobs that were outstanding and in light of their professional, quick turn around and value for money service,
