Condensation Problems: Can You Claim Against Your Landlord?

Script for the above Video
Condensation is a common issue in properties, especially in colder or more humid climates. It occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with colder surfaces, causing the air to release moisture in the form of water droplets. Condensation often appears on windows, walls, and mirrors and can lead to problems such as mould and mildew growth.
Whether you can claim compensation or assistance from your landlord for condensation-related issues depends on the specific circumstances and the underlying cause of the condensation.
It is important to differentiate between condensation that results from lifestyle factors and condensation caused by structural disrepair. While your landlord is generally responsible for the latter, it's essential to maintain clear communication and collaboration to resolve condensation issues effectively. Legal action should be a last resort if other avenues have been exhausted.
