Is your council ignoring damp, mould, leaks, pests, broken heating or structural problems? We specialise in council housing disrepair claims and force local authorities to carry out repairs + pay compensation on a genuine No Win No Fee basis.
Local councils have the same legal duties as private landlords. When they fail to repair council houses or flats, tenants suffer. We successfully force councils to act and secure substantial compensation for tenants across the UK.
Average compensation from council disrepair claims
Very common in council properties and a major health risk.
Rats, mice and cockroaches in council estates.
Especially critical during winter months.
Councils are bound by the same laws as private landlords: Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018, and Defective Premises Act 1972. We know how to put pressure on local authorities.
