Go to your estate agent and complain, you can only do this if it's a managed property.....otherwise, you might be able to complain to the council, but am not sure. It depends on where you're living. |

yes you can, speak to citizens advice they pointed me in the right direction when i had a similar problem |

If your tenancy agreement specifies that the landlord is responsible for remedial repairs and the landlord unreasonably fails to do this then this is a "breach of contract" and you would be able to take reasonable steps to get the repairs carried out and reclaim them from the landlord, perhaps via rent deductions. However, perhaps your landlord disagrees over whether the repairs are necessary or who is responsible for them, in which case you would inflame the situation by unilateral action. Engaging a third party to act as arbitrator might be a good idea. If your landlord is unhelpful, you might do better to look for somewhere else to live than make a potentially expensive issue of this, a contentious relationship is not generally going to work well longer run. |

I feel for you, my landlord is the same!
I went to the local council who wrote to them, the landlord has a duty to carry out certain repairs.
You could take them to court but this is extreme, not to mention expensive.
DO NOT withold rent, you are only asking for more trouble.
You could also offer to sort out someone to carry out the repairs and send the landlord the bill |

Yes, so long as you are happy to start looking for some-where else to live ..
By far the best approach is to come to some compromise that achieves your 'end goal' - in this case, getting the Repairs done. ... for example you could arrange for Quotes for the necessary work .. |

Yes, they are breaking their contract with you. Although you shouldn't withhold rent - if after going down the correct procedures for asking for the repairs.. you open a saving account depositing the rent into that account and show the Landlord and Estate agents that is what you are doing. Should it go to court then you can show the rent being kept safe until the repairs are completed. Or you could report them to the local Council for renting out a dangerous property. Environmental health department. If you have children you are in even more than ever a stronger position.
Good luck to you. |

Yes. Ask the Tenancy and Advisory Service for assistance. There should be a phone number to contact in your local phone book. These people really do a good job for you. |

Yes you can hold back your rent until the repairs have been done. Speak to citizens advice or local council |
