Repairs are of course necessary to each and every property throughout the length of the tenancy and Landlords must be prepared for this eventuality.
Repair and/or replacement of major electrical items as they age such as cookers, washing machines, fridges, freezers and boilers must also be expected.
We will make arrangements, on your behalf, with our approved contractors to carry out any necessary repair work or arrange replacement with your consent.
We will agree in advance the level of responsibility you wish us to have in arranging repairs and replacements, and then proceed accordingly, without further reference to you, or as discussed and agreed.
Where there is an emergency repair, such as a burst pipe or a gas leak, there are different legal obligations on all parties.
Common sense has much to do with such decisions taken to limit any further damage to the property and to minimize health and safety risks to tenants.
Major repairs will, of course, be discussed with you first and estimates obtained for your approval prior to any work being carried out.
