Damp & Mould in Aberdeen’s Housing Stock

Aberdeen's rental stock is dominated by granite tenement flats, distinct in construction from the sandstone tenements typical of Edinburgh and Glasgow but sharing the same damp risk profile.

Aberdeen's rental market has historically tracked the North Sea oil and gas industry's boom-and-bust cycles, which has left some landlords under-investing in fabric maintenance during downturns. As elsewhere in Scotland, the Repairing Standard — not Awaab's Law — sets the legal minimum here.
