Our Core Values
Here at Beckford Surveying Services we strongly believe in the following:-
1. Independence & Integrity
We are not affiliated with any contractors, repair companies, or product suppliers.
Our independence means our only goal is to deliver honest, accurate, and unbiased assessments that protect both landlords and tenants.
2. Professional Expertise
With over four decades of combined experience, our team has encountered every type of damp and mould issue imaginable. We combine technical precision with practical advice to ensure our reports are both scientifically sound and easy to implement.
3. Accountability & Compliance
We help landlords meet their statutory repair obligations under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018, and Awaab’s Law standards.
Our reporting format is designed to demonstrate due diligence, making it easier for landlords and housing providers to show they’ve acted responsibly.
4. Health & Wellbeing
We understand the serious health risks associated with damp and mould — from respiratory conditions and allergies to anxiety and stress.
Our mission extends beyond property care to protecting people’s health, ensuring that every assessment contributes to a safer, healthier living environment.
5. Clarity & Communication
We believe that technical data only has value when it’s clearly understood.
Our reports are written in plain English, supported by photographs, moisture readings, and severity ratings, giving you a complete picture of the problem and what to do next.
Our Standards and Approach
Although Awaab’s Law specifically applies to social landlords, we have adopted its response times as our internal best practice standard for all surveys:
- Within 24 hours: Emergency hazards identified and reported
- Within 3 working days: Written report issued
- Within 5 working days: Recommended start date for remedial works
By aligning our process with these standards, we help ensure that all clients — whether private landlords or housing associations — deliver swift, documented responses to housing hazards, protecting both residents and property assets.
We also maintain strict quality assurance procedures and continuous professional development (CPD) to ensure our team remains at the forefront of housing inspection and environmental safety practice.
Our Commitment
We are committed to working collaboratively with all stakeholders — landlords, tenants, housing officers, and maintenance teams — to improve housing safety and prevent recurring damp and mould issues.
Every survey we undertake is guided by our core promise:
To identify the cause, communicate the risk, and guide the solution — with honesty, professionalism, and care.
Our goal is to make independent surveying accessible, transparent, and effective — so every property can become a safe, compliant, and healthy home.
