Swindon grew fast with many estate homes built in the mid-twentieth century. Areas like Penhill, Pinehurst and Parks have many social housing units that suffer from roof leaks and mould growth.

What Are Your Rights as a Tenant in Swindon?

Regardless of where you live in Swindon, 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 Swindon landlord fails to meet these standards, you can claim compensation.
