Repairs if you rent from the council or housing association
If you rent from the council or housing association, they’re responsible for most repairs in your home.
Report repair issues as soon as you notice them.
If repairs are not done, you can make a complaint or take legal action.
The process is different if you rent privately or have a mid-market rent.
