Has City of Wolverhampton Council ignored your repair complaint?
You're not the only one. If you reported a repair and City of Wolverhampton Council ignored it, the law is on your side.
The City of Wolverhampton Council manages around 22,000 homes through Wolverhampton Homes, its wholly-owned ALMO. The service covers a mix of Victorian terraces and 1960s tower blocks across All Saints, Bilston and Park wards.
C2, some weaknesses but broadly compliant. Managed by Wolverhampton Homes ALMO. They manage 22,000 homes across England. When a landlord this size ignores you, the law is on your side, but only if you act. Under Awaab's Law and Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, you can claim compensation and force the repair.
Wolverhampton Homes' older tower blocks have a documented history of damp at the lower floors due to ventilation issues. If you live in a flat at floors 1-3 and have recurring mould, that's part of a structural pattern that the ALMO has previously acknowledged. If Wolverhampton Homes or the council has ignored you, here's how to claim.
