Housing Disrepair Claims for Council Tenants in Wandsworth
or call Legal HD on 0161 974 7350
Are you a tenant in Wandsworth Council or housing association housing living with serious maintenance issues? If you’ve reported repair problems and your landlord hasn’t acted, you may be eligible to claim compensation and get the repairs completed through legal channels.
At Legal HD, we support Wandsworth tenants who are fed up with being ignored by their landlord. If your living conditions are affecting your health or quality of life, we’re here to help you take action and restore your rights.
Is Your Home in Disrepair?
Landlords have a legal obligation to maintain the properties they rent out. If you’ve told them about a problem and they’ve failed to resolve it in a reasonable time, you could have a housing disrepair claim.
Typical issues that may qualify include:
- Persistent damp or mould, especially black mould
- Water leaks from the roof, pipes, or faulty guttering
- Broken heating systems or no access to hot water
- Faulty electrical wiring, flickering lights or exposed sockets
- Pest infestations, including rats, mice or insects
- Structural damage, such as cracked ceilings or unstable walls
- Broken doors or windows, risking security
- Unsafe or non-functional bathrooms or kitchens
If your landlord has failed to fix any of these issues after you’ve reported them, you may be able to make a claim.
What Compensation Could You Be Entitled To?
When landlords fail to act, the impact on tenants can be significant. If your home is in poor condition and your landlord hasn’t dealt with it, you could be compensated for:
- The stress and inconvenience of living in disrepair
- Personal belongings damaged, such as furniture or clothes
- Additional expenses, like high heating bills or replacement items
Even if the repairs are eventually completed, you may still be able to claim for the disruption and harm caused during the delay.
