Damp in a rented flat: before asking who pays, look at this

2026-08-16 · Damp in a rented flat: before asking who pays, look at this Watch on YouTube

What I say in the video

Got damp in your rented flat? Before saying who pays, look at where it comes from.

Damp is not a cause: it is a symptom. It can come from a leak, a fault, condensation or other problems with the property. And that matters, because responsibility cannot be decided just by looking at the stain.

The first step is to identify the source. The second, to report the problem and put it on record. And the third, to document what is happening, with photographs and dates.

So before arguing over whether the landlord or the tenant pays, first find out what caused the damp. Got damp at home? Tell me about it.
