Repairs ordered for a family living with damp

£12,750 Compensation + Repairs Settled in 6 months

A family in Bradford spent two winters living with persistent damp and mould that their landlord repeatedly ignored, affecting their health and their children’s belongings.

How we helped

We instructed an independent surveyor, evidenced the disrepair and the family’s repeated reports, and pursued the landlord under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 and the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018.

The outcome

The landlord was ordered to carry out a full programme of repairs, and our clients received £12,750 in compensation for the inconvenience, distress and damaged possessions.
