Your Rights

Your landlord has a legal duty to keep your home safe and habitable.

Under section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, they must repair the structure and exterior of your property and maintain key installations like heating, water, gas and electricity.

The Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 also requires your home to be fit to live in. That includes issues like damp and mould, leaks, and other issues that can affect your health and daily life.

If you've reported repairs to your landlord and they aren't resolved within a reasonable timeframe, you may be able to make a housing disrepair claim.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a housing disrepair claim?
A housing disrepair claim is a legal process where a tenant can take action against their landlord for failing to maintain the property. This can result in the landlord being forced to carry out repairs and paying compensation to the tenant.
Does it cost me anything to start a claim?
No, we operate on a "No Win, No Fee" basis. This means you don't pay anything upfront, and you only pay a fee if your claim is successful.
How much compensation could I receive?
The amount of compensation depends on the severity of the disrepair, how long it has been going on, and the impact it has had on your health and quality of life. Our specialists can provide a free assessment of your potential claim value.
Will my landlord evict me if I make a claim?
No, it is illegal for a landlord to evict a tenant simply for exercising their legal rights to a safe home. Most of our clients are council or housing association tenants, who have strong protections against retaliatory eviction.
What if I have already tried to get my landlord to do the repairs?
If you have repeatedly asked your landlord to fix the issues and they have ignored you or failed to carry out the necessary works to a satisfactory standard, our expert solicitors can step in. We will use legal action to compel them to complete the repairs and seek compensation for the time you have had to live in disrepair.
