Can you claim housing disrepair compensation in Gillingham?

Rented homes across Medway, including Gillingham, often suffer from rising damp and structural leaks. Cold air and poor ventilation can make black mould get worse quickly, especially in winter. Tenants report these problems to Medway Council or their housing provider, but repairs are often delayed. If your landlord ignores your requests, it affects your health and peace of mind. Getting your claim checked helps ensure your home gets fixed.

What Are Your Rights as a Tenant in Gillingham?

Regardless of where you live in Gillingham, whether you rent from the council or a housing association, you are protected by the law in England and Wales. The Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 states that your home must be:

  • Free from serious damp and mould growth.
  • Equipped with functioning heating and hot water systems.
  • Safe from hazards like faulty wiring or gas leaks.

If your Gillingham landlord fails to meet these standards, you can claim compensation.
