Accessing Your
Mould Essentials Guides

Our activities

The UK Centre for Mould Safety has created a range of easy-to-follow 'Mould Essentials' guides designed to help those coming into contact with mould inside a building to take the right action.

We offer our guides to everyone in the UK. Those required to pay to access the guides fund our work to improve public health.

Our guides follow the same format at the Health and Safety Executive's guidance for dealing with asbestos - a format that tradespeople are familiar with.

Tenants / homeowners

Our guides are free to access for those living in mould, to enable those able to remediate mould themselves.

We provide you with a checklist to support a safe selection process when choosing a service provider.

Tradespeople

Our guides are available for £25+VAT. This cost funds the public health support offered to households by the UK Centre for Mould Safety.
