If you are a resident of a council owned property, the council is responsible for handling most of your home repairs, from minor leaks to emergency repairs. However, if the council does not act upon your complaints, you are able to file a claim and take them to court. This could result in the court ordering the city to make repairs and providing compensation for any expenses incurred or losses suffered.
Before starting the legal process and filing a complaint against the council, it is important to confirm that they have not acted upon your reported issue. Therefore, it is advisable to first report the problem and wait for their response before proceeding with any further actions.

As a tenant, you should anticipate your landlord to handle any developing issues with rising damp. This is because tenancy agreements typically involve an assumed condition that obligates the landlord to stay up-to-date on interior and structural repairs of your residence.
If your home has caused you distress and financial hardship due to issues such as damp, mildew, faulty electricity or structural damage, then you may have the right to claim compensation from your landlord. In some cases, it might even be possible for you to recoup rent payments made prior to repairs being done! A housing disrepair case can cover a variety of problems in residential properties – so don’t miss out on this chance of getting what’s rightfully yours!
Taking swift action is always the wisest move when initiating a housing disrepair claim since it simplifies gathering evidence and ascertaining fault. Additionally, there may be legal deadlines that you should pay attention to; for example, if your case involves personal injury claims then these must be addressed in due course. If you believe any sickness or medical issues have been caused by mould present at home, consult with a lawyer promptly regarding seeking compensation.
Have you ever wondered what causes damp and mould to accumulate in your home? The answer is too much moisture. Leaky pipes, roofs or windows that allow rain into the house, as well as simply using water on a freshly built structure can lead to mould growth. To prevent any potentially harmful consequences of this accumulation, it’s essential to take these factors seriously into account if you want a healthy living environment.

English law mandates that your landlord supplies you with a steady supply of heat and hot water at all times. As such, tenants have the right to access central heating systems or space heating devices in each area of their rental home. Moreover, the reliable availability of boiling hot water is also critical and should be made available as well.
It is the responsibility of your landlord to keep a comfortable living space, which includes ensuring that heating systems and hot water services are running effectively. If they provide electric heaters, then those must be working correctly as well. Should you encounter any issues with your heating system or hot water heater, it is up to the landlord to resolve them – their commitment entails repairs and covering associated costs!
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!
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!
According to Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, it is a legal obligation for landlords to provide all essential repairs on their leased properties – from common maintenance tasks up to any repair jobs that affect either the visual aspect or structure of your property.
As the landlord, it is your responsibility to cover any security risks in or around the property. Although you may be expected to do some light maintenance such as replacing bulbs, major repairs are not part of your agreement and should not fall on you financially.
