When you occupy a council-owned house, the local authorities are responsible for any home maintenance and upkeep necessary – even minor leaks or emergency repairs. If your grievances have gone ignored by the council despite your complaints, then it is within your right to take legal action against them.
Making a claim might result in the court ordering the city to make a repair, as well as compensation for expenses incurred.
Before filing a complaint to the council, it is essential that you confirm they have not responded to your reported issue. It would be prudent for you to report the problem first and wait for their response before taking any further action.
As a social housing tenant, you deserve to live in dignified conditions. If the repairs required at your home have been neglected or overlooked by authorities, our specialist team of social housing disrepair lawyers can help you take lawful action and secure adequate compensation for any suffering endured as well as losses incurred.

You may also be able on occasion to get back the rent that was paid while the property was being fixed.
Acting quickly is essential to forming a successful claim for housing damage. By taking swift action, you can preserve key evidence and bolster your argument before any statutory deadlines lapse–not to mention prevent potential risks from arising if there were personal injuries involved in the incident. Don’t wait; start filing today!
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.
If you want to avert the unfortunate outcome of mold buildup, it is important to be aware that excessive moisture in your home or apartment can cause damp and mould. This could result from leaking pipes, damaged roofs, rainwater coming through unsealed windows and using water before the house has dried properly.
Taking steps such as these will help ensure a safe living space for yourself and those around you – something that should not be overlooked!

English law ensures that all tenants are provided with dependable heating and hot water sources in their rental properties. Your landlord is obliged to supply central heating systems or space-heating equipment for every room, as well as providing easy access to boiling hot water if required. This guarantee of comfort should be extended to all occupants regardless of tenancy status.
Maintaining a pleasant living space is the landlord’s responsibility, including guaranteeing that hot water and heating systems are in excellent shape. Electric heaters provided by them must also be functioning appropriately. If ever you experience any difficulties with your heating or hot water system, your landlord has to make repairs and foot the bill for maintenance – it’s all part of their duties!
Landlords must assume the utmost responsibility for their rental properties and make sure all systems, such as water pipes, heating solutions, drainage facilities and other necessities like gas or electricity are functioning well. It is essential to promptly address any issue concerning water leakage in these residences under your supervision; swift action will be necessary to successfully handle the matter.
They must also ensure that the property is safe and fit for human habitation. If water damage has resulted from a water leak, the landlord may also be responsible for repairing this damage.
In most situations, a landlord can’t terminate your tenancy until the problem they are responsible for has been addressed. However, if your landlord has neglected to address an issue that makes living in the property unsuitable for you and your family’s needs, then it may be necessary to leave earlier than agreed. Despite being secure and suitable for human residence, this would give you sufficient grounds on which to take action.
As a landlord of a Council or Housing Association property, it is your responsibility to ensure that exterior repairs are made on the building, including any damage done to doors and windows. Despite what your rental agreement maintains, you must take charge in upholding these requirements for tenants’ safety and security.
Failing to do so can cause serious problems such as mold growth or safety hazards. Landlords should check for indicators of wear-and-tear like eroded sealants, broken door handles/locks, rotten window frames, faulty hinges or broken glass; ensuring too that all external openings remain draughtproof and damp free when closed properly.
As dictated by Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, landlords are obligated to attend to any essential structural or external repairs needed on their rented property. Such repair works range from maintaining its structure to refreshing its aesthetic appeal.
Not only should the landlord be aware of and address safety hazards within the property or its vicinity, but they must also cover any costs associated with repairs. Although you may have to take charge of minor maintenance issues like changing light bulbs according to your lease agreement, landlords are accountable for any major structural renovations that arise.
