Reviews from Oldham Tenants
Real feedback from tenants we've helped across Greater Manchester.
Brilliant service from start to finish. My council flat had black mould in every room for over two years and the council kept fobbing me off. SLS got an independent surveyor round within a week, and within three months my landlord had done all the repairs and I received compensation. Can't recommend them enough.
Had a leaking roof and damp walls for months. My housing association kept sending contractors who never fixed it properly. SLS took on my case No Win No Fee and got everything sorted. Repairs done and I got compensation for the damage to my belongings.
I was living with my children in a flat with no heating for weeks during winter. The boiler kept breaking down and the council weren't responding. SLS acted fast — they got emergency repairs done and pursued a full claim. Very professional and always kept me updated.
