Accommodation in Disrepair Claims
Have you been hurt as a result of accommodation in disrepair? Claim compensation with us today
The term 'accommodation in disrepair' covers anywhere you happen to be living that you don’t own and is not properly maintained. For example you may be renting your house or flat from a private landlord, or from the council, or you may be living in a hostel or hotel. In all of those circumstances, it is the responsibility of your landlord to make sure that the property is safe.
If it is not, and you have an accident as a result of something they have done or something they have omitted to do, then you will be entitled to fair and just accident compensation.
A successful compensation claim will entitle you to money for any suffering and pain, any future suffering and pain, and repayment for any loss of earnings as well as cash spent on medical bills.
If your accident happened on holiday, please take a look at our

Things it’s important to do if you want to make an accommodation in disrepair claim
As with any injury, the first and most important thing you must do is visit a doctor. Even if you don’t think you’re hurt badly, things that seem innocuous can sometimes become more serious, so it’s always as well to check and make sure, especially if you’ve banged your head.
If, prior to getting hurt, you’d complained about the disrepair of the accommodation, please let us know when, and if you have any proof, we’d like to have that too. Also, if anyone else noticed the problem, it’d really help us if you had their contact details, though please don’t worry if not. Lastly, please take a photo of anything that shows the disrepair of the accommodation, and also of your injuries.
