Tenant rights and landlord responsibilities
In
most instances landlords are
responsible for repairs. Tenants are
usually only responsible for decorations, and for putting right any
damage they have caused.
As recognised experts

this field we can help you to enforce your rights and get repairs done.
You may also be able to claim
compensation if there has
been a delay in carrying out the
repairs, or if you, or anyone living with you has been injured as a
result of the disrepair.

Landlords are almost always responsible for repairs to the following regardless of what your landlord tells you:
The structure and exterior of the building - such as the walls, roof, external doors and windows, sinks, baths, toilets and other sanitary fittings, including pipes and drains, heating and hot water appliances, gas appliances, pipes, flues and ventilation and electrical wiring. They are also responsible for putting right any damage to internal decorations that was caused by the disrepair or while repairs they are responsible for are carried out.
