Boiler & Heating Claims – Ensuring Warm, Safe Homes for Tenants
Living without heating or hot water is not only inconvenient, it can be dangerous — especially during winter months. Landlords, councils and housing associations in the UK have a legal duty to keep boilers and heating systems in working order. If they fail, tenants may be entitled to make a housing disrepair heating claim.
At Housing Disrepair Specialist, our Housing Disrepair Professionals, skilled Housing Disrepair Consultants, and supportive Housing Disrepair Advisors provide complete Housing Disrepair Support. We pursue fair Housing Disrepair Justice on behalf of tenants — all on a No Win, No Fee basis.
Common Heating & Boiler Problems
- No heating during cold weather.
- No hot water due to faulty boilers.
- Repeated breakdowns leaving families without essentials.
- Unsafe systems causing leaks or carbon monoxide risks.
Your Rights as a Tenant
Under UK housing law, landlords must ensure your home is fit for human habitation. That includes working heating and hot water. If your landlord ignores repeated complaints, you could claim:

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I claim if my boiler isn’t working in a council property?
- How much compensation can I get for no heating or hot water?
- What if my landlord refuses to fix the boiler?
- What if my boiler keeps breaking down?
Yes. Councils are legally obliged to provide safe, functioning heating. If they fail, you may claim repairs and compensation.
Compensation depends on how long you’ve been without heating, the impact on your health, and any related costs.
Our Housing Disrepair Specialists can escalate the matter legally to ensure repairs are carried out.
Repeated failures may strengthen your claim. We gather evidence to show landlord neglect and pursue compensation accordingly.
