A housing disrepair claim occurs when a tenant has reported a problem to their landlord, given them enough time to fix the problem, only for them to either fail to do so or just ignore you entirely. No one deserves to live in unsafe, unfit, cold, damp, or unhealthy living conditions; yet countless amounts of tenants live in uninhabitable conditions, while 97% of renters are unfamiliar with their rights.
Indeed, most housing disrepair claims involve a tenant taking legal action against their landlord to ensure they either fix the repair problems, pay you the appropriate compensation, or sometimes both. Our expert housing solicitors work tirelessly to make your housing disrepair claim as stress-free and straightforward as possible.
The main housing disrepair cases relate to:
- Damp and mould
- Unsafe Flooring and/ or staircases
- Faulty electrics
- Gas and water leaks
- Unsafe heating system
- Infestations such as rats, mice, cockroaches, etc.
