As a tenant, you can rely on your landlord to handle the problem of rising damp. This is due to an implicit agreement in their tenancy contract that makes them liable for maintaining and repairing both the structure and external parts of your residence.
If your home is in an unkempt state and it has caused inconvenience or monetary damages, you may be able to pursue recompense from your landlord. A housing disrepair claim may encompass a wide array of problems, from mold and mildew growth to electrical issues to structural destruction.
You may also be able on occasion to get back the rent that was paid while the property was being fixed.
There is no particular expiration of time for lodging a housing disrepair claim, yet it’s wise to act quickly. If you make your complaint promptly, you’ll have an easier time gathering evidence and forcing any potential liable parties to be responsible. Moreover, in certain cases there are strict deadlines that must be followed when filing the claim—just think about personal injury claims; they need immediate attention! Therefore, if you suspect damage caused by disrepair has occurred on your property or rental unit don’t wait too long-take action right away.
If you have been diagnosed with an illness that you believe is caused by mould, you should speak to a solicitor about bringing a claim for compensation.
Too much moisture in the home can result in damage from dampness and mould growth. This could be caused by broken pipes, a leaky roof or windows that let rainwater into your property. Even using water before the building has been sufficiently dried out when constructing new buildings can lead to this issue developing.

By law, your landlord is mandated to guarantee that you have access to dependable hot water and/or heat at any given time. As a tenant, it’s your legal right to receive central heating or space-heating facilities in all rooms of the house. You are also entitled to boiling water services when needed.
As a tenant, you have the right to expect your landlord to responsibly maintain all hot water and heating systems as well as appliances that they have set up. Furthermore, it is essential for these devices to be in proper working order; if any problems arise with the heaters or other related equipment within your rental property, then it is incumbent on them to promptly repair and pay for necessary maintenance expenses.
As a landlord, it’s your responsibility to guarantee that all elements of your rental property are well-maintained and functioning properly. This includes plumbing, drainage pipes, gas and electricity systems as well as any other installations. If there is ever an issue with water leakage in the home you oversee, then you must act quickly to resolve it effectively – no excuses!
As a landlord, it is essential to guarantee that the home is safe and suitable for renters. If water damage has been caused by a leak from any pipes or other sources within the rental property, you as the landlord are responsible for fixing this issue before your tenants can move in.
Furthermore, landlords must repair any issues before they can terminate the tenancy of their tenants. Even if your property is secure and meets all residential standards, you still have a right to act if it fails to live up to expectations that are important for your family’s wellbeing. On special occasions, this could include leaving prior to the end date listed in the agreement with your landlord.
Council & Housing association landlords are responsible for exterior repairs to a rental property, including damage to doors and windows. This responsibility exists even if the rental agreement says that the tenant is responsible for repairs.
Landlords should take it upon themselves to regularly inspect their property, particularly any external windows and doors. Not only can an unmaintained entrance or exit cause mould growth, but could potentially be a threat to security as well. So if you detect anything from broken door handles or locks, deteriorated sealants and window frames, flawed hinges or shattered glass – make sure these are addressed in a timely manner!
Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 demands that all landlords must address any essential exterior or structural repairs needed for their rented properties. This is more than just typical upkeep – anything from a repair task which impacts the physical structure to one affecting its overall aesthetic falls under this particular legal provision.
The landlord is accountable for eliminating any security risks present in or around the property with their own capital. While your lease may account for you to do some minor maintenance, like replacing light bulbs, most major repairs are not your responsibility.
