How to Report Disrepair (Without Fear of Eviction)

Published on 20 Feb 20251 min read

Too many renters stay silent about mould, leaks or broken heating — fearing retaliation or eviction. But in 2025, you have rights and protections when reporting disrepair. This guide shows how to raise concerns confidently, safely, and effectively.

What Counts as Disrepair?

How to Report It Properly

What If You Get a Section 21 Notice After Reporting?

This is known as retaliatory eviction. If the local council inspects and confirms disrepair, they can block the landlord from evicting you for 6 months. That’s why it’s important to report properly — and get the issue logged officially.
