The roof above my leasehold flat leaks after heavy rain. The large resulting damp patches are a health hazard and, because of their proximity to electrical circuits, a fire hazard.

If I were a tennant I could force the landlord to repair the defect under Section 82 of the Environmental Protection Act. Does anybody know if I can do the same as a leaseholder?
