Can you make a housing disrepair claim against the council or housing associations?

If a property is in bad shape, it implies that it needs to be restored in order for it to be deemed safe and suitable to live in. This usually applies to leased homes as well as any other type of rented accommodation.

If you rent a home and it is in poor condition, you can seek compensation for any discomfort, inconvenience, or suffering you have endured. If you live in a rented house as a tenant, your landlord has to fulfil the following requirements:

  • Your home is in a good state of repair structurally
  • There is no rising damp and mould in the property
  • You have access to safe electricity, gas, and water
  • You have working hygiene facilities, such as toilets, basins, sinks
  • Your home is free from vermin and infestations
  • You have a working heating system
  • Your drains and gutters are working correctly
  • Your roof is intact and safe

If any of the above is an issue for you and your home, you may be eligible to claim compensation and force your landlord to carry out repairs.
