Common Questions

What is housing disrepair?

Housing disrepair refers to conditions in a rented property that the landlord has failed to maintain or repair. This includes issues like mould, damp, leaks, broken heating, faulty electrics, pest infestations, and structural problems.

Can I claim compensation for housing disrepair?

Yes, if your landlord has failed to address reported disrepair issues within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to compensation for the inconvenience, health impacts, and damage to your belongings.

How much compensation can I get?

Compensation varies based on the severity and duration of the disrepair. Typical awards range from £1,000 to £10,000 or more for serious cases affecting health or making the property partially uninhabitable.

Do I need to pay upfront?

No, we operate on a no win, no fee basis. You only pay if your claim is successful, and fees are deducted from your compensation award.

How long does a claim take?

Most housing disrepair claims settle within 6 to 12 months. Complex cases or those requiring court proceedings may take longer.

Will claiming affect my tenancy?

Your landlord cannot legally evict you for making a legitimate disrepair claim. This would be considered retaliatory eviction and is protected against by law.
