Can you claim housing disrepair compensation in Leeds?

Are you dealing with leaks, broken boilers or thick mould in your Leeds home? Your landlord is responsible for keeping your property safe. If they ignore your requests, you could claim compensation. We make it simple for Leeds tenants to check their rights on a No Win, No Fee basis.

Across Leeds, many social housing tenants cope with damp rooms, drafty doors and roof leaks that never get fixed. Leeds City Council and local housing associations must keep their properties in good repair. When repairs are delayed, your health and home suffer. If you reported housing disrepair and nothing changed, we can help you start your claim for compensation.

What Are Your Rights as a Tenant in Leeds?

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