How we approach landlord ventilation in Leicester
We work with individual landlords, portfolio landlords, HMO owners and letting agents. Jobs can be booked between tenancies or arranged with tenants in occupation, and every visit ends with photos and airflow readings you can keep on file.
Rental package
A PIV unit plus two humidity fans: a typical fix for a damp 2 to 3 bed rental.
HMO ventilation
Extract for every kitchen and shower room, often with continuous fans tenants cannot switch off.

Questions from Leicester
Is the survey free in Leicester?
For new installations on the UK mainland, yes. The survey is free and the quote that follows is fixed and in writing. Servicing, testing and repair visits are charged, and we confirm the cost before booking.
What is the best ventilation for a rental property?
For most rentals, humidity-controlled or continuous extract fans in the wet rooms plus a PIV unit gives reliable results that tenants cannot easily switch off. It typically costs £1,495 to £2,695 including VAT for a 2 to 3 bed home.
Does Awaab's Law apply to private landlords?
Awaab's Law currently applies to social landlords in England. The Renters' Rights Act provides for similar requirements to apply to private rented homes later; dates are set by government.
