Windows & Doors

Windows & Doors

Your landlord has a responsibility to make sure that all external windows and doors are in a good state of repair, are safe and secure and are draught and damp proof.  

There are obvious safety issues that arise from faulty or damaged windows and doors, if they cannot keep the draught out, they are unlikely to keep any other unwelcome visitors out either. Likewise, if a draught is coming in you can all but guarantee that your heat is escaping just as easily, so your heating and energy bills could be far higher than they need to be.    

All too often a cold, draughty house can bring with it more than just problems when the gas and electricity bills drop through the letterbox :

Damp and/or mould can appear causing health issues, especially to those with underlying health problems, young children or the elderly.  

Pests and vermin can enter the property.  

Financial worries may cause you to switch off essential heating leading to associated health problems.       

Some rooms or areas of the property may be unusable as they are too cold or too mouldy.
