Dry rot in your home

What is Dry Rot, and is it in your home?

by Kayleigh Withington • 16 December 2022
Dry rot is essentially a wood decay caused by fungi which can ruin wooden structures outside and inside of your home. Scientifically, dry rot (also called brown rot) occurs when the fungi breaks down components of the wood which give the wood the strength it needs. Once dry rot occurs and spreads, it makes the wood weak and brittle, causing structural problems. Dry rot usually happens after a period of damp.

Is your housing problem discrimination?

by Kayleigh Withington • 14 December 2022
Unfortunately, most social housing tenants will not recognise that the housing problem they are experiencing, is discrimination. It is unlawful to suffer discrimination by your social housing provider because of your characteristic(s). Social housing organisations (your council or housing association) have a duty not to discriminate against you and your housing needs.

Keeping you and your house warm this winter

Unsurprisingly during this cost of living crisis, gas and electric prices are shooting up whilst the winter days/nights get colder and colder. It’s more important than ever to see how we can improve our home to keep the warmth in and save money where we can.
