Your Landlord must keep in repair the structure and exterior of the property and keep any installationsfor water, gas, electricity, sanitation, space heating and heating water in proper working order.
Housing disrepair is when your property suffers from damage or a defect for which your Landlord is responsible. The law requires your landlord to complete basic repairs to your property, whether they are private landlord, local council or a housing association.
In short, you are entitled to compensation if the landlord failed in its duty to repair a defect. Before we can talk about potential compensation, we need to first look at the circumstances in which you can bring a claim against a landlord.
Anytime during your tenancy, you can take legal action, you can also bring a claim after you move out. You usually have six years after the problem was first reported to your landlord to bring a claim for compensation against your landlord. If the problem has caused you personal injury you only have three years.
To claim compensation, you must report the problem to the landlord while you are a tenant. To build a strong case, you should keep records of the interactions between you and the landlord such as SMS messages, emails, letters or instant messages such as WhatsApp. You should also take notes of important dates, like when the problem was reported.
Any other important documents that you receive, such as medical reports or quotes to fix the problem should be dated and stored. Housing disrepair claims allow you to get compensation for a variety of problems, let’s look at some of these issues now.
It is also a good idea to keep photographs of the repair problem. If the defect deteriorates over time, it is helpful to keep a photo log of the defect.
In most claims for leaky roofs and faulty windows or structural issues such as rising and penetrating damp, it is not unusual for tenants to use extra heating and use additional appliances such dehumidifiers to heat and dry the property. In such situations, it is advisable to keep copies of your utility bills to demonstrate the additional heating and electricity cost, where applicable.
