Private Landlord Problems
Been living in private home for over 3 years.
Have been asking landlord to do repairs for some time,
1: Bedroom window cracked - asked when we moved in (still cracked)
2: Electrics checking - had a bouncy castle for kids birthday and guys
rcd kept tripping, He said its a bad electric earth and get it
checked out - asked over 1 year ago now.
3: Boiler-Gas central heating - no safetly certificate, asked again last
year but still no sign of corgi registered guy to check.
Hoping this will get him sued in court and he may start listening.
4: Bath has just got a crack in it, not sure how but landlord is claiming
we must pay for the bath itself, He'll get it fixed in we must pay for the bath.
The bath is old and he had it out of place 3 months ago fixing a leak when it could have received a knock then.
Plenty of other small items that we have asked for repairing that have never been done.
Anyone offer any help advise on how we proceed with this guy, My family's health and safety is on the line here.
Regards
George

P.S
Last question we never received our tenancy agreement this year (Feb) so since we no longer have a tenancy agreement am I correct in thinking that we don't owe the lanlord any rent, No agreement no contract?
Whats the legal position if I hold the rent back?
