If your living quarters are causing you trouble or financial stress, seek compensation from your landlord!

Too much moisture in your home can cause mould growth and dampness, which is why it’s important to be aware of the causes.

How long must you wait for your council landlord to provide hot water or heating?

It is a legal requirement in England that landlords must guarantee their tenants an adequate and dependable supply of heat and hot water. This necessitates that each room of the property should be equipped with either central heating systems or space-heating devices, as well as the capability to instantly access boiling water on demand!

It is your landlord’s responsibility to preserve the hot water and heating systems, as well as any appliances like the electric heaters they have provided. Keeping up a secure and operating heating or hot water system is essential for everyone living in the building – that means it’s on them to make sure these systems are always running efficiently. Any time something goes wrong with either of those systems, they must take action quickly by repairing or replacing anything needed and covering all associated costs.

My roof is leaking, can I receive compensation?

As a tenant, you may want to consider filing a claim with the manufacturer of the roofing material or the contractor who installed the roof.

You should contact your landlord or property manager immediately to report the leak. You may also want to check with your insurance company to see if your policy covers roof leaks. If your policy does not cover roof leaks, you may want to consider filing a claim with the manufacturer of the roofing material or the contractor who installed the roof.

If a landlord fails to address an issue that has rendered the dwelling hazardous or unsuitable for you and your family, then it is within your right as a tenant to take action. Even if the property was deemed safe before this breach of responsibility on behalf of the landlord, they cannot terminate tenancy until these issues are resolved. Don’t let them get away with neglecting their responsibilities – exercise your legal rights!

Who holds accountability for the windows and doors in a council property?

Even when the tenancy agreement states that it is the responsibility of a tenant to take care of repairs, Council and Housing Association landlords are still accountable for exterior repair work on rental properties, such as damage to doors and windows.

Landlords, it is important to closely inspect your property regularly to ensure that external windows and doors close securely, are sealed properly against the elements, and draught proofed. Any inadequate maintenance of entrances or exits can lead to a variety of problems such as mould growth in addition to making safety an issue – so if you notice broken locks or door handles, degraded sealants around window frames, faulty hinges, or shattered glass shards – make sure you act promptly by having them fixed!

Can I make a disrepair claim for external issues outside of my property?

Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 (Section 11), landlords are mandated to take on most of the external and structural repairs required for their leased property, regardless of how they may affect its structure or appearance. This obligation is uniform across all sorts of necessary improvements.

As a renter, it is the landlord’s responsibility to guarantee that both your rental property and its vicinity are secure. Your tenancy agreement may consist of basic tasks such as replacing light bulbs; however, structural repair costs should not be on you. All expenses regarding these matters will be taken care of by your landlord.
