Housing Disrepair Claims in the UK?

Understanding Housing Disrepair Claims in the UK

Living in a home that is unsafe or in poor condition can affect your health, peace of mind, and quality of life. If your landlord fails to fix serious issues after being notified, you may be eligible to make a housing disrepair claim.

At Housing Disrepair Team UK, we help tenants across the UK get the repairs and compensation they’re legally entitled to — all with no upfront costs.

 What is a Housing Disrepair Claim?

A housing disrepair claim is a legal action a tenant can take when a landlord fails to repair essential damage or faults in a rented property, despite being made aware of the issue.

This includes problems such as:

• Damp and mould
  
  


• Broken heating systems
  
  


• Leaks or water damage
  
  


• Pest infestations
  
  


• Structural cracks or unsafe stairs
  
  


• Faulty electrics or plumbing
  
  

 When Can You Make a Disrepair Claim?

You can file a housing disrepair claim if:

• You’ve reported the problem to your landlord (in writing or verbally)
  
  


• Your landlord has had enough time to fix the issue
  
  


• The issue still hasn’t been resolved
  
  


• Your health, safety, or belongings have been affected
  
  

 What Can You Claim For?

A successful housing disrepair claim may include:

• Repairs to the property
  
  


• Compensation for:
  
  
  
  
  
  • Health problems (caused by mould, damp, etc.)
    
    
  
  
  • Damage to belongings
    
    
  
  
  • Higher heating bills
    
    
  
  
  • Inconvenience and suffering
