While our articles are written by legal experts and cover general UK housing law, they do not constitute formal legal advice for your specific situation. We recommend starting a free claim check to get personalized guidance.
If you have reported a repair issue (like damp, leaks, or broken heating) to your landlord or council and they have failed to fix it within a reasonable timeframe (usually 21-28 days), you likely have a claim.
You are legally protected from "revenge evictions" under the Deregulation Act 2015 when making a legitimate complaint about housing conditions. Our blog covers these protections extensively.
It means exactly that. We take on the financial risk. If we do not win your case and secure repairs/compensation, you do not pay us a single penny for our legal fees.
Every article on our blog is written and reviewed by certified legal professionals specializing in UK housing disrepair law.

A glimpse into recent scenarios where our legal team successfully forced landlords to make repairs and pay compensation.
A young family in London suffered for 2 years with black mould. After filing our claim, we secured mandatory repairs within 30 days and full financial compensation.
A tenant was left without heating in winter. We intervened, legally forcing the local council to install a new boiler and securing £1,200 for the inconvenience.
A private landlord attempted a Section 21 eviction after the tenant complained about a leaking roof. We had the notice thrown out and claimed £2,000.
