Frequently Asked Questions – Housing Disrepair Claims
1. What is a housing disrepair claim and who can make one?
A housing disrepair claim is when a tenant takes action because their rented property is in poor condition due to their landlord's responsibility being ignored. If you're renting from a private landlord, housing association, or social housing provider, and the issues haven’t been fixed, you can make a claim.
2. Do I need a tenancy agreement to make a disrepair claim?
Yes. Your tenancy agreement outlines the landlord’s legal obligations. If repairs aren’t done within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to compensation and can take legal action with support from our expert team.
3. How much will it cost to bring a housing disrepair claim?
We operate as a regulated claims management company on a no win, no fee basis. This means there are no upfront legal costs, and you only pay if your claim is successful.
4. Can I take legal action if my landlord refuses to do repairs
Yes. If the landlord refuses to act, we can escalate the matter with court action. In some cases, we also deal with the housing ombudsman or follow the appropriate redress scheme process.
5. What if I rent from housing associations or social housing landlords?
You're still protected under UK law. Housing associations and social housing landlords have the same legal duties. If they fail to act, you're entitled to start a disrepair claim and seek compensation.
6. Can I claim compensation for financial loss or poor conditions?
Yes. You may be eligible for compensation due to financial loss, health issues, or inconvenience caused by disrepair. This includes when the property is not fit for human habitation.
7. What role does a letting agent play in disrepair claims?
A letting agent may manage the property, but it's still the landlord's responsibility to carry out repairs. We can help determine where the legal duty lies and guide you through the claim process.
8. Is the housing ombudsman involved in disrepair cases?
Yes, the housing ombudsman and housing ombudsman service handle complaints against housing associations and some private landlords. However, for quicker resolution, many tenants choose to work with claims management experts like us to take direct legal action.
