Housing Disrepair Claims

Do you currently live in a council house, social housing, or housing association Property? Have you reported the disrepair to your landlord, but they have been ignoring you? Has the disrepair been causing you emotional distress? You do not need to suffer in silence; as tenants you have rights too.

If you are a tenant and living in rented property, which has fallen into disrepair, you may have a disrepair claim against your landlord if they have failed to repair faults or not kept the property in good condition. If you have been hurt or have developed an illness while living in a rented home and the failure of your landlord to look after the property has in any way contributed to your condition, you may be entitled to compensation and apply for an order by the court to have works carried out.
