How and When to Make a Housing Disrepair Claim
You can make a housing disrepair claim if your landlord fails to carry out essential repairs after being notified within a reasonable timeframe. This applies whether you rent from a private landlord, housing association, or local council.
To strengthen your disrepair claim, keep detailed records of all communication with your landlord or housing authority. Save emails, letters, photographs, and reports, noting the dates you reported the issues and any attempts to resolve them.
Clear evidence shows that your landlord was aware of the disrepair and did not take action, increasing your chances of successfully claiming housing disrepair compensation.
How much compensation can you get for housing disrepair?
The amount of housing disrepair compensation you can claim varies depending on your property and the severity of the issues. Factors considered include the rental cost, the extent of the disrepair, and how long the landlord was aware of the problem before taking action.
In most cases, tenants can recover between 25% and 50% of their rent for the affected period. Additional compensation may also be awarded for inconvenience, distress, damage to personal belongings, or health issues caused by the disrepair.
To maximise your disrepair claim, it is essential to keep detailed records, including photographs, medical evidence, and copies of all communications with your landlord. Strong evidence helps ensure you receive a fair and accurate housing disrepair compensation award.

When You Can Make a Housing Disrepair Claim
You can make a housing disrepair claim if your rental property has faults or issues that your landlord, housing association, or council is legally responsible for addressing. This includes cases where necessary repairs have been neglected despite prior notifications, creating unsafe or unhealthy living conditions.
Common Types of Housing Disrepair
- Damp and mould affecting walls, ceilings, or floors
- Structural cracks in walls, floors, or ceilings
- Pest infestations, including rats or other vermin
- Leaking roofs, gutters, or pipes
- Heating system failures or boiler problems
- Structural defects or faulty pointing
- Unsafe electrical installations
- No hot water
- Sanitary or plumbing issues
- Any hazards posing a risk to health or safety
To make a housing disrepair claim, it’s essential to follow the correct procedures depending on your tenancy type, whether renting from a private landlord, housing association, or local council. Keep thorough records of all communication, including emails, letters, photographs, and any repair requests. Documenting the dates when problems were reported and any responses received is crucial, as this evidence demonstrates that your landlord or housing authority was aware of the disrepair but failed to take action.
Calculate Your Housing Disrepair Compensation
The amount of housing disrepair compensation you may receive depends on several factors, including the severity of the property issues, how long they persisted, and how quickly your landlord responded after being notified. Using a simple housing disrepair calculator can help you estimate your potential claim based on these details. Typically, tenants can claim between £1,000 and £3,000 per year for the period their property was affected.
Key Factors Affecting Your Claim
- Type and location of the disrepair
- Severity and duration of the issue
- Impact on tenant’s health or safety
- Landlord’s response or delays
- Access given to landlord or contractors
- Tenant vulnerability or health conditions
Courts may also apply a rent rebate formula, awarding 10–80% of your rent based on these factors.
Our expert housing disrepair lawyers ensure all factors are considered to secure fair compensation on a no win no fee basis.
