Housing disrepair compensation enables tenants in the UK to claim financial redress when landlords fail to carry out necessary repairs. Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 and the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018, landlords are legally required to maintain the structure, heating, plumbing, electrics, and overall safety of rental properties. If issues such as damp, mould, leaks, or faulty heating systems remain unresolved after being reported, tenants may be eligible for housing disrepair compensation. The amount awarded depends on the severity and duration of the disrepair and its impact on health and daily living. Keeping written complaints and photographic evidence can strengthen your claim.
