    We have rebuilt the UKAME website from the ground up

    A clearer, faster home for everyone working to get damp and mould right: housing teams, remediation professionals, landlords and tenants.

    13 June 2026

    We have launched a completely rebuilt mouldexperts.org.uk. UKAME is the UK's training and membership provider for damp, mould and housing compliance, and the new website is built around one idea: the people who use it are not browsing, they are under pressure to act. Whether you lead a housing compliance team, inspect and remediate properties, manage a rented portfolio or live in an affected home, the site is now organised around what you actually need to do next.

    Everything is faster, clearer and works properly on a phone. Here is what is new for each of the people we serve.

    For housing associations and councils

    Awaab's Law has been in force for damp and mould since October 2025, and the duties are strict. The new site gives compliance teams practical help rather than just information:

    • A guide to Awaab's Law that sets out exactly what the law requires and the statutory timescales: 10 working days to investigate, 5 working days to complete safety work, and 24 hours for emergencies.
    • A free working-day deadline calculator: enter the date a hazard was reported and see your investigation, written-summary and safety-work deadlines as real dates, with weekends and English bank holidays excluded automatically.
    • Three-tier Awaab's Law and HHSRS training for every level of your organisation, from front-line officers to boards, delivered live online by Tristan Hemsley, with the first public cohort on 9 July 2026.
    • A compliance dashboard that tracks every damp and mould case against its statutory deadlines automatically, with audit trails and board-ready reports, from £149 per month with a 14-day free trial.
    • A free job board to reach verified, UKAME-trained remediation specialists.

    For mould remediation contractors and surveyors

    Remediation done properly is a discipline, and the new site treats it that way. Professional development and credibility now sit in one place:

    • Mould remediation training at Tier 2 and Tier 3, delivered by an IICRC certified trainer, plus a free Mould Awareness course to get started.
    • Professional UKAME membership with verified digital credentials, a QR-verifiable membership card, the AI Standards Advisor, and downloadable RAMS, method statements and risk assessment templates.
    • A listing in the directory of verified, UKAME-trained professionals, so commissioning organisations can find you and confirm your status on the spot.
    • Member training discounts: 25% off all UKAME training courses, 15% off ESC Learning courses including the Ofqual-regulated ABBE Level 3 Award, and 50% off the Tier 2 refresher.

    For landlords and property managers

    Damp and mould responsibilities are tightening across the rented sector. The site helps you understand your obligations and act on them:

    • Clear guidance on what the law expects, including how Awaab's Law and the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act apply, on our landlords page and in the Awaab's Law guide.
    • A simple route to find a verified, UKAME-trained specialist to investigate and remediate properly, the first time.
    • Training options for in-house maintenance and property teams who handle damp and mould day to day.

    For tenants and homeowners

    If mould is affecting your home, the site is designed to help without selling at you:

    Built to be faster, clearer and more accessible

    Beyond the content, the whole site has been rebuilt for speed and clarity. Pages load quickly, everything is designed mobile-first, the design meets modern accessibility standards, and the structure makes it easy for both people and search engines to find what they need. The statutory timescales that sit at the heart of Awaab's Law are presented consistently across the site, so the numbers that matter are never more than a glance away.
