Eligibility & process

Find out in 60 seconds whether you can claim

Most social housing tenants who have reported a repair and been ignored have a valid claim. Rent arrears, tenancy length and immigration status make no difference.

Who qualifies

You can usually claim if…

You likely have a claim

  • You rent from a council, ALMO or housing association
  • You reported the disrepair at least 21 days ago
  • The landlord has done nothing, or the repair failed
  • The defect is structural or in the landlord's control
  • The disrepair happened in the last 6 years
  • You still live in the property (or moved out recently)

A claim may not succeed if

  • The damage was caused deliberately by you or a visitor
  • The issue has never been reported to your landlord
  • You own the freehold of the property outright
  • The problem is purely cosmetic with no defect behind it
