The simplest and absolute 1st method of resolving a plumbing leak should be to start by reporting this to your landlord. You can report this in person, through email, via your landlord's report-a-repair portal on their website, and by the phone.
But what happens if you have reported the leaks but your landlord has failed to fix the fault?
Whilst most landlord's will take water damage to their property extremely seriously, there are some who fail in their duty. Whether this is due to apathy, general incompetence, poor organisation or a penny pinching culture, the result is that this can have a serious impact on you; the tenant.
If your landlord has failed to resolve the leak within an appropriate timeframe or has completed a repair to a very poor standard, they may be in breach of their duty as a landlord. If this is the case, your landlord may require firm negotiation to get this repair completed, and you could also be entitled to a degree of compensation.
This is where we can help. We'll negotiate a settlement on your behalf and will arrange compulsory repairs to get completed within a reasonable timeframe.
To start, simply complete the form on this page, and one of our team will be in touch to explain the process in further details.
