Healthy Homes Assessment

Ensure Your Rental Meets Healthy Homes Standards

Healthy Homes Standards are designed to create warmer, drier, and healthier rental properties. Our Healthy Homes Assessment evaluates your property against the five required standards to help ensure compliance.

We inspect heating, insulation, ventilation, moisture ingress and drainage, and draught stopping. Our assessment identifies whether your property meets the requirements and outlines any improvements needed.

Our goal is to make compliance simple and stress-free. We provide clear guidance on upgrades such as installing heating systems, improving insulation, adding extraction fans, or addressing drainage and moisture issues.
