What are the legal standards of mould in rented homes in the UK?

As a private tenant it’s important to check your tenancy agreement in regards to maintenance of mould in your property.

Legally your property is required to be “free of hazards”. Excessive damp, mould or cold are considered ‘category 1’ hazards. If your landlord does not resolve the issues that are within their statutory duty, you can take legal action.
