How much could your housing disrepair claim be worth?

A few questions about your home and the issues you've been living with. We'll give you a considered estimate based on published guidance — and what to do next.

01

Which issues have you been living with?

Tick anything that applies. The more you've had, the higher the impact tends to be.

02

How serious has it been overall?

Be honest — most people understate this. Think about how it's affected daily life.

03

How long have the issues been going on?

Count from when you first reported it to your landlord — that's what matters for the claim.

Who is your landlord?

This helps us estimate the right route to claim.

05

How much rent do you pay?

A rough figure is fine. We use this to estimate the rent-refund part of your claim.

Start your claim with Your Firm

Speak to a solicitor about your situation. There's no obligation, and most disrepair cases are handled on a no-win-no-fee basis.

You can also claim without a solicitor

You can contact the Housing Ombudsman directly, without paying a fee, if your landlord is a council or housing association. For private landlords, you can complain to your local council or apply to the First-tier Tribunal. We can help if you'd like, but it's your choice.

How this estimate is calculated

Housing disrepair compensation in England & Wales generally has two parts: general damages for the loss of enjoyment of your home (calculated as a percentage of the rent paid during the disrepair period), and special damages for specific losses (such as damaged belongings, higher bills, or alternative accommodation).

The percentage applied to rent typically ranges from 25% for moderate disrepair to up to 100% (a full rent refund) for severe, near-uninhabitable conditions. The figures shown above are an illustrative range using this established framework, weighted by the number and type of issues, severity, and duration.

This is an estimate, not a guarantee. Every case turns on its facts and the evidence available. A solicitor can give you a much more accurate view after reviewing your situation.

Our approach

Compliant by design, not by disclaimer

The thing that makes a calculator safe for an FCA-regulated firm to host isn't the small print at the bottom. It's how it's built. Here's what's different about the way we build ours.

📊

Ranges, never specific figures

The single biggest enforcement target in CMC advertising right now is "your claim is worth £X" claims. Our calculators always return a range — and we round to professional intervals, so outputs read as considered, not spuriously precise.

📐

Methodology shown openly

Every result includes a plain-English explanation of how the figure was reached — grounded in the established case-law framework. A user can see the working; a regulator can audit it.

🧭

Signposting to free routes

Every result page tells users how to claim without a solicitor — the Housing Ombudsman, First-tier Tribunal, local council. This is mandatory for CMCs, and best practice for solicitors. We bake it in.

🎨

Built in your brand

Your fonts, your colours, your tone of voice. The calculator looks and reads like a native part of your site — not a third-party widget bolted on. Default compensation ranges are also configured with you, to match your firm's typical case experience.

🛡️

You retain regulatory control

You sign off the figures and disclosures before launch. The firm is the controller and remains responsible for the financial promotion. We provide the software; you retain authority.

🔄

Updated as guidance moves

When the FCA, SRA, or relevant ombudsman publishes new guidance, we update the calculator centrally. Every firm on Claimculate moves to the new version automatically. You never run a stale tool.
