What do I need to start a housing disrepair claim?

To begin, you should provide details of the disrepair, such as damp, mould, leaks, pests or heating issues, along with information about when you notified your landlord.

How long does the eligibility check take?

The eligibility check usually only takes a few minutes and helps determine whether your circumstances may qualify as housing disrepair.

Do I need evidence before starting the claim?

You do not need all your evidence immediately, but photos, videos and landlord communication records can help support your case as the process continues.

Will any fees or charges be explained before I proceed?

Before continuing with a claim, you should receive clear written information explaining how the service is funded, any potential fees or deductions and the circumstances where charges may apply.
