When Landlords Fail to Carry Out Repairs
Landlords have a legal responsibility to keep rented homes safe and in good repair. Unfortunately, many tenants are left living with problems that affect their health, damage their belongings and make everyday life difficult.
Common issues include damp and mould, leaks, structural problems, faulty heating, electrical hazards and pest infestations.
“I kept reporting the problems, but nothing changed.”
