Mrs Tuner, who lives in the Borough of Hastings in East Sussex, brought a claim against their social housing landlord Southern Housing at the start of July 2022.
Since 2017 the Claimant experienced issues with water ingress through the roof, resulting in water damage and damp. The Claimant reported the issues to the Housing Association multiple times. The Housing Association sent approximately 3 workers out in total to inspect it over the years, but unfortunately nothing was done until Mrs Turner contacted the Nicholson Jones Sutton Solicitors housing disrepair team.
The Claimant was successfully compensated in the sum of £7,500 by the landlord. This settlement was reached within 6 months of the Letter of Claim being sent to the landlord.
