Housing Disrepair

Your home should be a safe refuge and to live in, many landlords fall short of their obligation especially when you may have requested repairs to be carried out on a number of occasion.

The English Housing Survey states 3 in 10 people are living in bad housing. In actual figures that equate to 3.6million children, 9.2 million working age adults and 2 million pensioners

If you have notified your landlord of the repairs that require to carried out and this has been unreasonably delayed than you may be entitled to compensation.

You may also be entitled to compensation not only for the inconvenience but also the health conditions the poor housing condition may have led to.

• The compensation amount varies significantly and is determined on an individual case by case basis 
• This includes severity of the disrepair, how long you have suffered from the disrepairs and how it has affected you or any loved one that you have under your care 
• We work on a no win no fee basis 
• You will only be charged if you are successful
• Please get in touch with us for a free consultation
