Your home is your sanctuary. If you have been putting up with long-term disrepair issues in your council or housing association property it’s time to take action. 

A clean, hygienic living environment is key to sustaining and improving your health and wellbeing. If your landlord falls below these standards it’s important to know what you should do. 

Your landlord must ensure the home you rent is well maintained and safe to inhabit. If repairs are not carried out properly and in a timely manner you may have grounds for a claim.
