Are you renting from Kingston Council or a local housing association and still waiting on repairs that you’ve reported? If your landlord has failed to fix serious issues in your home, you may be able to claim compensation and take legal action to ensure the repairs are finally carried out.

At Legal HD, we help tenants in Kingston upon Thames get the support they need when landlords ignore their responsibilities. If your home is unsafe or affecting your health, it’s time to stand up for your rights.

Are You Living with Housing Disrepair?

Under UK law, your landlord must keep your property in good condition. If they fail to respond to repair requests—particularly after being informed in writing or via email—you may be entitled to take action.

You could be eligible to make a housing disrepair claim for issues such as:

• Damp and mould, especially black mould linked to leaks or poor ventilation
• Plumbing issues, including leaking pipes, water ingress or blocked drains
• No heating or hot water, especially in winter
• Faulty electrics, such as flickering lights or exposed wiring
• Vermin infestations (e.g. rats, mice or cockroaches)
• Cracked walls, ceilings or damaged flooring
• Broken or unsecured windows and doors
• Outdated, broken, or unsafe kitchens or bathrooms

If you’ve already reported these problems to your landlord and they still haven’t acted, you may have a strong case for compensation and legal enforcement of the repairs.

What Compensation Can You Claim?

Unresolved housing disrepair can seriously disrupt your life. If your landlord’s inaction has affected your living conditions, health or finances, you could be entitled to claim for:

• The inconvenience and distress caused by living in poor conditions
• Damaged possessions, such as clothing, bedding or furniture
• Additional expenses, like high heating bills or buying replacements

We’ll guide you through the process of claiming compensation and push to have the repairs completed.
