What Is Housing Disrepair?
Housing disrepair refers to defects in a rented property that affect your health, comfort, or safety. Common issues include:
- Damp and mould, including black mould
- Leaking roofs, windows, or plumbing
- Broken heating systems or lack of hot water
- Electrical hazards
- Structural damage
- Pest infestations, like rats or mice
