Window and Door Repairs in Rented Homes
Who can make a claim for window and door issues?
You may be able to make a claim if you are a tenant in a rented property and have reported issues with your windows or doors to your landlord, but nothing was done. This includes tenants in council housing, housing association homes, or private rentals. If the issue caused discomfort, risk, or inconvenience and your landlord failed to act, you could be eligible for compensation.
