Damp and Mould Claims Experts

Living with damp and mould can damage your health, your belongings, and your quality of life. If your landlord has failed to deal with the problem, you could be entitled to compensation and have the repairs carried out. Our specialists help tenants hold landlords to account on a No Win No Fee basis.

What Is a Damp and Mould Claim?

Damp and mould are among the most common — and most serious — problems tenants face in rented homes. Beyond the unsightly stains and musty smell, prolonged exposure can trigger respiratory problems, aggravate asthma and allergies, and pose a particular risk to children, the elderly, and those with existing health conditions. A damp and mould claim allows tenants to seek compensation when a landlord fails to put the problem right.

Damp can take several forms, including condensation, penetrating damp from a leak or structural fault, and rising damp from the ground. Whatever the cause, the responsibility to keep a property free from serious damp usually lies with the landlord — not the tenant. When mould spreads because repairs are ignored, the effects can extend from ruined furniture and clothing to genuine harm to your health.

Under UK law, landlords have a legal duty to keep rented properties safe and fit to live in. If you have reported damp or mould and your landlord has failed to take reasonable action within a reasonable time, you may be entitled to claim compensation and have the necessary repairs completed. Our team helps tenants understand their rights and take action.

Damp and Mould Claim FAQs

How much compensation can I get for damp and mould?
Compensation depends on how severe the problem is, how long you’ve lived with it, and its impact on your health and belongings. It can cover the reduced enjoyment of your home, damage to your possessions, and any health effects. We’ll give you a realistic idea after assessing your case.
In most cases, yes. Landlords have a legal duty to keep a property fit to live in and to deal with disrepair such as leaks, structural faults, and serious damp. There are limited situations where condensation is linked to how a property is used, which is why a proper assessment of the cause matters.
Time limits can apply, particularly where the damp has caused personal injury or ill health. Because the rules can be complex, it’s best to seek advice as soon as possible so evidence isn’t lost and any deadlines are protected.
Helpful evidence includes photographs of the damp and mould, copies of the reports or complaints you sent your landlord, medical records if your health was affected, and details of any belongings that were damaged.
