Two kinds of help
Once a problem is documented and reported, the next question is usually who can actually help. This directory is built around two paths: independent support organisations who can advise on your situation right now, and local specialists who can be brought in to do the physical work, once each one has been checked.
The national organisations below are real, free and available today. The local layer, county contacts and verified specialists, is being built out carefully rather than rushed, so that a badge on this page actually means something when it appears.
Talk to someone today
Free, confidential advice for renters on repairs, standards and dealing with your landlord. Their advisers can talk you through your specific situation and the right next step.

rtb.ie ›Free, independent money advice if a housing problem is tied up with rent or budgeting pressure. Useful if arrears are part of what is going wrong.
mabs.ie ›By county
Your local authority housing standards team can inspect a rented home that falls below the minimum standards. Select your county below and we will bring you straight to your council contact, rent rules and local advice.
