Read this first

These are not all the decisions about this landlord. They are the ones in our set, which was chosen because the complaints concerned damp, leaks, heating or pests. The number here says how many we read, not how many exist, and it cannot be compared with the number on another landlord’s page.

Each finding describes how one complaint was handled at one time. It is not a statement about how this landlord operates today, and it is not a verdict on the organisation.

About this landlord

This landlord is a housing association — a registered provider of social housing. It must belong to the Housing Ombudsman Scheme, so the Ombudsman route is open to its tenants once its own complaints process is finished.

For how the routes work when your landlord is a housing association, see housing association disrepair claims.

In case 202451559 (Places for People Group Limited, decided 24 April 2026), the Housing Ombudsman’s most severe finding on the condition of the home was reasonable redress, on “A mould wash appointment”.

What was decided, issue by issue

reasonable redress — A mould wash appointment (disrepair)

Money was involved, but not as a single ordered total — the decision records 3 awards, which may include sums the landlord had already offered. The index data sets out each one. It made no order, but 1 recommendation — an order binds the landlord, a recommendation does not.

Pay the resident the £150 awarded, if it has not already been paid. (recommendation — not binding)

If this is your landlord

A decision about someone else’s complaint does not decide yours, and it is not evidence in your case. What it does show is that the route works and what it can produce. The free routes come first, and they cost nothing: report the repair in writing, use the landlord’s formal complaints process, and then escalate free to the Housing Ombudsman.

Whether a legal claim is also possible depends on your own facts. Our overview of housing disrepair claims explains what one involves.
