- Excluded from the 2024/25 management information return by RSH. Perception data only. Decent Homes figures were not published. That is a dataset-level exclusion applied by RSH, not a scoring failure specific to this council.
- Barriers to Housing and Services: rank 87 (21.6% of neighbourhoods in the most-deprived 10% nationally).
- Living Environment: rank 161 (0.0%).
What these figures mean. TP01/TP02/TP03 are tenant satisfaction scores from the Regulator of Social Housing's 2024/25 Tenant Satisfaction Measures. Decent Homes is the national minimum standard for social housing. IMD rank compares deprivation against all of England (1 = most deprived).
You may be able to claim if
- You're a tenant of Tandridge Council
- You've reported a repair problem (damp, mould, leaks, broken heating, structural issues, pests) and it hasn't been fixed within a reasonable time
- The disrepair has affected your health, your belongings, or your ability to use part of your home
You do not need to still be in dispute with the council to claim. Most claims are made after a repair has already been logged.
Legal basis and compensation
Under Section 11 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985, Tandridge Council has a legal duty to keep the structure, exterior, and the installations for water, gas, electricity and heating in your home in repair. Since October 2025, Awaab's Law additionally sets fixed timescales for investigating and fixing damp, mould and other significant hazards in social housing. That duty applies directly to Tandridge Council as your landlord.
Tandridge Council has one severe maladministration finding on record with the Housing Ombudsman (2021-24). Whether or not this reflects a wider pattern, your right to a safe, well-maintained home doesn't depend on it. The law above applies regardless.
Compensation typically reflects a rent-based reduction for the period the home was unfit to live in, the cost of damaged belongings, and, where relevant, the impact on your health or living conditions.

What could my compensation be worth?
There's no fixed table or calculator that can tell you your case's value in advance. It depends on how long the disrepair went on, how serious it was, and the impact it had on you and your home. Our full guide explains how compensation is actually calculated, including the difference between general damages (for loss of enjoyment of your home) and special damages (for provable financial losses).
