The Tenant Complaint Process
We encourage tenants to express their concerns if they receive services that do not meet TCHC’s customer service standards.
What is a complaint?
You can file a complaint if you are not satisfied with a TCHC service or have issues with your interaction with a staff member. Toronto Community Housing is committed to delivering positive and responsive tenant services to meet the needs of our diverse communities.
A complaint is different from a service request. If you need a service or maintenance request to be completed, contact your building staff or the Client Care Centre at 416-981-5500.
If we did not resolve your service requests, or if you would like to share a compliment or complaint about our services, fill out the online form or contact the Solutions team at 416-981-6000 or solutions@torontohousing.ca.
How do I submit a complaint?

You should first raise issues with your local staff your building, Tenant Service Hub, or by calling the Client Care Centre at 416-981-5500.
