Housing disrepair refers to issues within a rented property that affect its habitability or safety, which the landlord must legally fix. If you’re renting from a council, housing association, or any other social housing provider, the landlord must ensure your home is well-maintained.
Housing disrepair issues include:
Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, landlords are required to keep the property in good condition and repair any damage that affects the safety or health of the tenants. If your landlord fails to carry out repairs after being notified, you have the right to request repairs, and in some cases, you may be entitled to compensation for the inconvenience and harm caused by the disrepair.
Housing disrepair claims are legal actions tenants can take to ensure repairs are carried out and to receive compensation for the impact of living in poor conditions. If your landlord does not address the issues you’ve reported, you may be eligible to make a claim. Compensation can cover damage to belongings, health issues caused by disrepair, and inconvenience endured. Our team assists tenants in making successful claims against councils and housing associations.

This could include carbon monoxide poisoning, injuries from slipping or tripping hazards, moisture or mould caused by respiratory issues, and other kinds of injuries.
