What tribunals have said

The passages below are quoted verbatim from published tribunal decisions in which Rendall & Rittner appears; each links to the full public decision on GOV.UK. We publish only the tribunal's own words — never our characterisation.

“The tribunal also asked about the different sizes of the blocks. It was a little concerned that estimated electricity charges were the same across different sizes of blocks but considered that overall, the charges were not unreasonable.”
The tribunal in LON/00AR/LSC/2024/0321, of Applicant / managing agent (Rendall and Rittner)
“The Tribunal was not provided with any details of the inspection reports, copies of photographs or the estimate of the costs of the work and the details of the contractor or any updating information concerning the works have been completed.”
The tribunal in LON/00AY/LDC/2020/0222, of Applicant / managing agent
“The Tribunal is concerned about the limited information which has been provided to this tribunal in support of the application.”
The tribunal in LON/00AY/LDC/2020/0222, of Applicant / managing agent
“The Tribunal were not happy with this explanation or with the expenditure that was largely unexplained and unacceptable.”
The tribunal in LON/00BJ/LSC/2021/0428, of FairFX PLC charge (para 34(i)) and Rendall & Rittner invoice 56993 (para 34(vi))
“the Tribunal considered that it was reasonable to conclude that there may have been some failures regarding the oversight of the project by both RR and GV, and, in particular, but without limitation, some apparent confusion between HGM, RR and GV as to the boundaries/extent of their roles.”
The tribunal in MAN/00BN/LSC/2021/0026, of Rendall & Rittner (managing agent) and Gateley Vinden (employer's agent)

Methodology

These statistics are computed from the published decisions of the First-tier Tribunal (Property Chamber) in service charge cases (case types LSC, LIS and LDC). Each decision is parsed into a structured record — the sums challenged, the sums allowed, the outcome per cost head, and the orders made — and the aggregates on this page are recomputed nightly in plain arithmetic from those records. No figure on this page is estimated, modelled or hand-typed; each carries its sample size. Current corpus: 2,383 decisions covering 12,898 individually disputed items, last updated 4 July 2026.
