I live in a rented property and there are some repairs needed. My landlord isn’t doing anything, what can the Council do?
If, having been told about problems, your landlord has failed to put them right, an officer from Private Sector Housing can visit you and carry out a survey. If significant hazards are found, the officer will then be able to contact your landlord with a view to requiring those problems to be rectified.
