How do we deliver it?

Access is the most common reason disrepair works stall. We offer flexible appointments, confirm in writing and log every attempt, so a delay caused by refused access is clear from the record.

In England, housing conditions claims follow the Pre-Action Protocol for Housing Conditions Claims: the landlord responds to a letter of claim within 20 working days with a schedule of works, and any expert inspection follows within 20 working days of that response.
