Pest Infestation Is a Serious Legal Matter.
A pest infestation in your rented home is not something you should be expected to tolerate. If your property has been affected by rats, mice, or other pests and your landlord has failed to take appropriate action, they may be in breach of their legal duty of care under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985.
Pest infestations pose a direct risk to the health and safety of you and your household. Gnawed wiring creates a fire hazard, droppings carry serious disease, and the longer the issue is left unaddressed, the greater the damage to your home and your wellbeing.
If you have raised the matter with your landlord or letting agent and received no adequate response, you may have grounds to pursue a housing disrepair claim and seek compensation.
Our specialist team acts on behalf of tenants across Birmingham and the surrounding areas. We will assess your case, advise you on your legal rights, and represent your interests throughout the entire process.
