As a Council or Housing Association tenant, you have the legal right to live in a safe, well-maintained, and habitable home. Your landlord is legally responsible for ensuring your property is free from disrepair and meets health and safety standards.
If your Council or Housing Association has failed to carry out essential repairs after you’ve reported them, you may be eligible to file a housing disrepair claim.

Much attention is given to the damage housing disrepair has on families, especially those with young children. However, older people are often left in situations of housing disrepair that can go unresolved for years. Last month, Westminster City Council agreed to pay £21,000 to an elderly tenant who could not get necessary repairs done on her flat.
Experiencing housing disrepair issues can be stressful, affecting both your comfort and well-being. Fortunately, tenants have legal protections in place to ensure that landlords fulfil their obligations to maintain properties and keep them in repair.
Housing disrepair claims against social housing landlords have substantially increased since the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018 came into force in England in March 2020.
