Living with mould, damp, or broken heating is not just uncomfortable — it can be harmful to your health. In council and housing association homes, landlords must ensure your property is fit to live in. If they fail to do so, you may be entitled to compensation for housing disrepair.
When Can You Claim?
You can start social housing disrepair claims if your landlord has been aware of the problem but hasn’t fixed it in a reasonable time. Issues could include:
- Persistent mould growth
- Damp patches on walls or ceilings
- Faulty or broken heating systems
- Leaks and water damage
How Much Could You Get?
The amount depends on the severity of the problem, the time you’ve lived with it, and any damage it has caused. Claims often cover:
- Personal inconvenience
- Damage to belongings
- Health-related issues
- Increased heating costs
A housing disrepair solicitor can estimate your potential compensation and guide you through how to claim for housing disrepair.

Many tenants worry about legal fees, but with no win no fee disrepair claims, you only pay if your claim is successful.
