Boiler broken - landlord's obligation?

Recommended Posts

The private landlord has been 'waiting for a boiler part' that he couldn't find in local shops after the boiler in the house (with about 30 tenants) went on Saturday.

 

Tenants are having to shower at relatives homes (if they do at all!:hihi:) and are thus inconvenienced. The landlord is a decent bloke and usually very good at getting things fixed and replying to complaints etc, so i haven't whinged. I don't know if anyone else has?

 

Family members and friends, especially the females, are saying I should complain and demand some rent reduction, which does include all bills.

 

What do you think?

Just get on to the landlord again and get other tennants to do the same,does the landlord do his own checks. Surley the gas boiler should be looked at by a qualified corgi registered person..Some landlords, if they are decent ones have a gas breakdown cover.Not sure how you could proceed with the rent thing it could put you in breach of your tennancy agreement.

It's a large, clean and private Edwardian house divided up into roomy bedsits and flats.

 

The landlord has a registered gasman working on it, but it'll be fixed tomorrow, after 5 days down needing a few parts.
