Harringay, Haringey - So Good they Spelt it Twice!

Has anyone any advice about forcing a recalcitrant landlord to do necessary repairs to his premises?

Is having the repairs done and deducting the costs from the rent a possibility?  What other strategies are advisable?

The shelter website has a lot of info on this. http://england.shelter.org.uk/get_advice/repairs_and_bad_conditions...

Generally they seem to suggest that doing them yourselves and deducting rent isn't a good idea. If it was me, I'd use one of their template letters to contact the landlord and maybe include a quote for the work.

Thanks to you both.  That is very helpful.

Do not do the work yourself.
