If your home or business premises has a defect, a leak, water damage, damp or mould, you may have a claim against your landlord, or, in a new build, the builder. We produce the independent, dated, photo-documented report that your claim relies on. In English.
Request a defect report →German law lets you formally notify the landlord of a defect (a Mängelanzeige) and, while it goes unfixed, reduce the rent proportionally (Mietminderung). The key is independent evidence. We document the defect, with photos, dates, moisture readings and the likely cause, in a report that backs your notice or claim. We provide the technical evidence; you or your lawyer make the formal claim.
