Repair Work Commitments in Housing Association and Hodgehill Local Authority Residences: Occupants or Landlords?

If you reside in social Housing, your rights and duties as a tenant most likely differ from if you lived in personal leased Housing.
One grey area which occupants tend to lack knowledge in is who spends for property repair work and upkeep in social Housing, especially if the damage is not the tenant’s fault.
Do the repair work commitments in housing association and regional authority homes are up to the renter or the property owner? The answer is – it depends.
Sometimes it is clear cut that the tenant is responsible for a repair work, and often it’s apparent that the proprietor should pay up, but what takes place when it isn’t so black and white? Or, what takes place if a housing association neglects their repair commitments and leaves their renter living in disrepair?
This guide means to help you establish if your social Housing landlord is attempting to shirk their responsibility and what to do about it if they are.
If you reside in social or council Housing and your property manager is declining to make necessary repair work, we can help.
Repair work and Maintenance in Social Housing

What is a Housing Association Repairs and Maintenance Policy on Health and Safety Standards?

There are specific health and wellness standards which apply to rented houses. By law, your home must be safe and fit to live in when your tenancy begins and this must continue throughout the occupancy.
From the starting to the end of your tenancy, your housing association has commitments to fix and preserve security of:.
The gas supply and gas devices they provide.
Electrical circuitry and electrical appliances they supply.
Condensation, damp and mould are also common issues that you might stumble upon. You should report problems with this to your landlord right away.
Every property owner, whether they are a regional authority or a housing association, has responsibilities to repair damp and mould, as well as to determine the cause of the issue.
After you’ve reported the problem, an inspection and repairs they are accountable for must be performed. For instance, if the condensation has taken place due to a stopping working to supply sufficient ventilation on their part, it’s their job to fix the ventilation problem.
Moist and mould can posture a major danger to health, causing respiratory problems like asthma and bronchitis, especially in young children. This is why it is essential that you report it to your landlord, and that they sort it out as quickly as possible.
Everybody is worthy of a safe house. Are functions of your house hazardous, and has your social Housing property owner failed to make the essential repairs? To find out more about your housing association obligations to occupants, get in touch.
