Housing disrepair is a serious issue that arises when a rented property is left in a perilous state, which puts the tenants' health and safety at risk. The most common disrepair problems are related to the inadequate heating system, which ultimately leads to excess cold. In addition, blocked drains can be a severe cause of concern, as they may lead to waterlogging and create a breeding ground for dangerous bacteria and disease-carrying pests.
Furthermore, living in a damp or mouldy home is not just uncomfortable but also poses a severe threat to your family's health. Dampness in the house can result in respiratory issues like asthma, allergies and blockage in the nasal passage. Mould accumulation, besides being unsightly, can cause skin irritations, headaches, fatigue and other infections.
Such disrepair issues have grave implications for tenants, who often face additional costs in addressing the situation. Sometimes landlords may resort to unprofessional or hazardous solutions, further worsening the situation. Therefore, it is crucial that rented properties are kept in good repair condition, to ensure the well-being and comfort of the tenants.
