Housing disrepair refers to a situation where a rented property is in a state of disrepair, meaning it’s not safe, healthy, or comfortable to live in. Common examples include damp, mould, faulty heating, structural damage, or broken plumbing.

Evidence may include photographs of the disrepair, medical records if there is a health impact, correspondence with your landlord, and any independent reports or assessments.
