Any Tenancy Agreement will require the house to be in livable condition.
They need to get it in writing from the landlord that they won't fix it, then get advice from a housing charity like Shelter as to whether the issue and the landlord's refusal to act breaches the Tenancy Agreement.

Is there a clause in the contract about the property becoming uninhabitable due to flood / fire etc...?

In the recent downpours my friends flat is basically filling up with water and cant live in it. the landlord refuses to do anything and says they can leave the door open on their way out....
what can they do to make the landlord do something?
