If you live in a council home or housing association property, you do not have to put up with poor living conditions. Issues like mould, damp, leaks, broken heating, or other problems caused by your landlord not carrying out repairs are unacceptable – and at Never Claimed, we specialise in helping tenants like you claim the compensation you deserve.
We are experts in housing disrepair claims and are dedicated to supporting people living in social housing across the UK.
What is Housing Disrepair?
Housing disrepair refers to when a rented property falls below acceptable living standards due to damage or poor maintenance – and your landlord fails to fix it within a reasonable time.
Common issues include:
- Black mould and damp
- Leaking pipes or ceilings
- Broken windows or doors
- Unsafe electrics or gas
- Pest infestations
- Structural issues
If you’ve reported these problems and your housing association or council landlord hasn’t acted, you’re within your rights to take legal action – and Never Claimed can help.
You Have the Right to a Safe and Livable Home
Many tenants feel powerless when their landlord doesn’t take their complaints seriously – but you’re protected by law. Whether you’re in council housing or a housing association home, your landlord has a legal duty to keep the property in good repair.
Too many people suffer in silence, believing that nothing will be done. But the truth is: you could be entitled to compensation and have the repairs completed professionally – often at no cost to you.
High-Density Social Housing Areas Where Tenants May Be Affected
We’ve seen significant issues with housing disrepair in areas where social housing is most concentrated. If you live in any of the following places and have experienced ongoing disrepair, you may be one of many:
- Camberwell and Peckham
- Southwark
- Hackney
- Harlow
These areas have some of the highest densities of council housing and housing association homes in the UK, and we regularly help tenants here claim for mould, damp, leaks, and other unresolved problems.
Is Your Landlord Not Carrying Out Repairs?
You’ve reported the issue. You’ve waited. You’ve followed up. Still nothing? Then it’s time to take action.
We often hear from tenants who’ve been ignored for months – sometimes even years – by their council or housing association. But letting these problems continue can affect your health, your children’s well-being, and your overall quality of life.
With Never Claimed, you can get:
- A professional assessment of your situation
- Legal support with your housing disrepair claim
- Compensation for the stress and impact on your daily life
- Proper repairs carried out as part of the process
