Hello

I’ve spent most of my career working on the health, safety and long-term condition of homes – first inside a housing association as an asset manager / surveyor, and now independently for private landlords and agents.

​

Over the years I’ve inspected, appraised and managed thousands of properties, from new builds to older, harder-to-treat homes. Along the way I’ve built up a mix of qualifications that let me look at your rental as a whole system, not just one problem at a time:

• HHSRS (Housing Health and Safety Rating System) – understanding how hazards are viewed by local authorities.

• IOSH – health and safety management.

• Asbestos management – knowing when to be cautious and when further surveys are needed.

• DEA & NDEA – domestic and non-domestic energy assessment, and what really drives EPC performance.

• Qualified electrician – able to spot obvious electrical issues and advise when a full EICR or remedial work is needed. Tenants often extend the electrical system and create possible hazards.

Because I’ve worked on both the landlord and social housing side, I understand:

• What councils, ombudsmen and tenant solicitors look for.

• How Awaab-style expectations around damp, mould and hazards are changing the landscape.

• The pressures landlords face in balancing cost, compliance and tenant comfort.
   

My role is simple:

to give you independent, practical advice so you can keep your homes healthier, your tenants safer and your risk lower – without drowning in jargon or unnecessary reports.
