Fault Reporting

Reporting maintenance and repair issues swiftly and accurately is absolutely crucial for protecting your tenancy, the property, and potentially neighbouring homes. As a tenant, it's vital to immediately report any fault that falls under your landlord's statutory responsibilities (including structural defects, heating, hot water, and essential electrical systems). Failure to act quickly can result in a minor issue escalating into serious, costly damage, and under the terms of your tenancy agreement, you could be held liable for the resulting costs if the damage was preventable. Always check if your property is "Fully Managed" by Property Hub or managed directly by the landlord, as this determines who you must contact first to ensure compliance and avoid delays.

Landlord Responsibilities

Your landlord is legally responsible for maintaining the structure and services listed below. You must report these to the managing party:

  • Property Structure & Exterior: Including the roof, walls, and foundations.
  • Sanitary Fittings: Basins, sinks, baths, WCs, pipes, and drains.
  • Essential Services: Heating, hot water systems, gas appliances, flues, and ventilation.
  • Electrical Systems: Wiring, sockets, and any electrical damage caused by repair work.
