Landlords have to provide a safe living environment otherwise pay for you to stay elsewhere.
Follow the links in the other comment. Shelter are great and gave me all the legal wording I needed to get out of a shit contract once.
Once you have that push the landlord to move you to safe property. Most likely they are all dodgy but at least without the smell.
Go to a doctor and get something confirming this is impacting your mental health and if it is raw sewage then potentially your physical health as well.
I think the council have an environmental health team you can contact and get out to have a look.
Think about going to the papers as well. Dodgy landlord stories will let other people know not to rent from him and put a dent in his pocket. Might also kick the council into gear to take action. |
