This is the detailed report of findings relating to the housing stock from the English housing survey, and builds on results reported in the ‘English housing survey 2009 to 2010: headline report’ published in February 2011.

The ‘English housing survey 2009 to 2010: household report’ was also published on 5 July 2011.

The report includes the following findings:

• 8.8 million (38%) of the 22.3 million dwellings in England in 2009 were built before 1945; 4.8 million (21%) before 1919
• the energy efficiency (SAP) rating of the housing stock steadily improved from a mean of 42 SAP points in 1996 to 53 in 2009; improvement was particularly marked in local authority and private-rented housing
• however in 2009 there were still 3.3 million dwellings in the lowest energy efficiency rating bands F and G
• if cost-effective energy improvements (averaging around £1,400 per dwelling) were carried out to all 19.3 million dwellings that would benefit from them, the average SAP rating would increase from 53 to 63 and the average CO2 emissions per dwelling could be reduced from 6.0 to 4.6 tonnes per year
• there has only been a modest improvement in the proportion of the stock with problems of damp (from 10% to 8%), primarily because the incidence of serious condensation and mould (one cause of damp) has not changed from 4% of all dwellings
• electrical safety has improved significantly since 2001, especially for rented dwellings in both the private and social sectors
• there has been a significant reduction in the amount of disrepair since 2001, particularly in private-rented housing although this sector still had on average much higher average repair costs than other tenures in 2009

This report, formally known as the housing stock report, is the detailed report of findings relating to the housing stock from the English housing survey. It builds on results reported in the English housing survey headline report: 2010 to 2011 published in February 2012.

The English housing survey 2010 to 2011: household report was also published on 5 July 2012.

The report includes the following findings:

• in 2010, there were 22.4 million dwellings in England; 66% of these were owner occupied and the rest were rented, split fairly evenly between the private-rented sector (17%) and social-rented sector (17%); there were slightly more housing association dwellings (2 million) than local authority dwellings (1.8 million)
• 52% of the private-rented stock was built before 1945, including 40% built before 1919; also, 15% of private-rented homes were converted flats
• the total cost of dealing with basic disrepair (day-to-day maintenance) within the stock was around £31.8 billion at 2010 prices and the average cost of this type of disrepair was £1,418 per dwelling
• the proportion of dwellings with damp problems fell from 10% in 2001 to 7% in 2010; this was mainly due to a fall in the incidents of problems caused by penetrating damp
• the average energy efficiency (SAP) rating for the whole stock (using SAP09) has increased from 45 in 1996 to 55 in 2010
• the average SAP rating in the social sector in 2010 was around 8 points higher than either owner-occupied or private-rented homes (62 compared with 54)

The differences in collection methodology between the LADR and LAHS and the statistical methodology employed between MHCLG and RSH statistical releases are explored in detail in the technical notes.
