Housing disrepair refers to a rented property that has issues affecting its safety, comfort, or livability due to a landlord’s failure to carry out necessary repairs. This includes problems like damp, mould, leaks, faulty heating, and structural damage.

You can claim for various issues, including:

  • Damp and mould
  • Leaking roofs or pipes
  • Faulty boilers and heating systems
  • Electrical hazards
  • Pest infestations
  • Broken windows or doors
  • Structural damage (cracks, loose flooring, etc.)

Yes, if your landlord has failed to address reported repairs within a reasonable time, you may be eligible to claim for both repairs and compensation.

Your landlord cannot evict you in retaliation for making a legitimate disrepair claim. However, if you're on a fixed-term tenancy, it's best to seek legal advice.

Compensation depends on the severity of the issue and how long it has affected you. It may cover:

  • Inconvenience and distress
  • Health impacts
  • Damage to personal belongings
  • Increased living costs (e.g., higher heating bills due to poor insulation)

Yes, but you can still pursue a claim for past disrepair if it affected your health or caused inconvenience while you lived there.

At HDR Nationwide, we handle the entire claims process for you. We assess your case, gather evidence, negotiate with your landlord, and secure repairs and compensation with minimal hassle.
