Privately Rented Properties
If your property is in a poor state of repair, you should approach your landlord or agency to discuss the problem. Your
tenancy agreement should identify what items you are responsible for and what items are the landlords responsibility.
If the landlord does not attend to any repairs and you need advice on this please do not hesitate to contact the Council’s
Private Sector Housing team on 0116 2727536 or email housing.adaptations@blaby.gov.uk
