We Cover

Damp and Mould

Dampness and mould growth not only damage property but also pose serious health risks, including respiratory problems and allergies. Our legal team can assist you by conducting a thorough assessment of the extent of damp and mould, coordinating with professionals for proper remediation, and advocating for compensation for any damages incurred and for ensuring the issue is permanently resolved.

Structural Defects

Issues such as subsidence, cracks in walls, and unstable foundations compromise the safety and stability of the property. We provide comprehensive support by engaging structural engineers to assess the defects, negotiating with landlords for timely repairs or compensation, and pursuing legal avenues to enforce your rights if necessary.

Heating and Hot Water Failures

Lack of adequate heating and hot water can make homes uninhabitable, particularly during cold seasons, leading to discomfort and health concerns. Our legal experts work tirelessly to ensure landlords fulfill their obligations by demanding immediate repairs, seeking alternative accommodations if necessary, and pursuing compensation for any inconvenience or health issues caused by the lack of heating and hot water.

Pest Infestations

Infestations of rodents, insects, or other pests can cause distress and compromise hygiene standards within the property, requiring immediate remediation. We collaborate with pest control professionals to eradicate infestations, demand proper maintenance measures from landlords to prevent reoccurrence, and seek compensation for any damages or losses resulting from the infestation.

Electrical Hazards

Faulty wiring, exposed wires, and outdated electrical systems pose significant safety hazards, increasing the risk of fire or electric shocks. Our legal team takes swift action to ensure your safety by demanding urgent repairs or upgrades to electrical systems, arranging for inspections by qualified electricians, and pursuing legal remedies if landlords fail to address electrical hazards promptly.
