Repairs
If you are a Secure / Assured tenant then as your landlord we are responsible for some of the repairs and maintenance of your home, particularly the structure, services, fittings and shared areas. However, as a tenant, if you are safely able to do so, you are responsible for looking after the day-to-day maintenance and repairs to your own home.
