Start Claim Builder Pack — £99What Is a Property Disrepair Claim?
A property disrepair claim allows tenants in Leeds to seek compensation when a landlord has failed to carry out necessary repairs after being notified. Under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 and the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act 2018, landlords are legally required to maintain rental properties in a safe and habitable condition.
Common disrepair issues include damp and mould, structural defects, broken heating systems, leaking roofs, faulty plumbing, and pest infestations. If your landlord has ignored your repair requests, you may be entitled to compensation.
Yorkshire and the Humber's large rental sector — particularly across Leeds, Sheffield, Bradford, and Hull — sees a high volume of housing disrepair claims. Many properties in the region are Victorian terraces where structural decay, damp penetration, and ageing plumbing are recurring issues.
Claim Builder helps tenants in Leeds organise their evidence and generate a structured claim pack — ready to submit to the county court or use in pre-action negotiations.
