Carrying out repairs as a landlord

If you're renting out a property, as the landlord you're responsible for carrying out some repairs. It's your duty to make sure the property meets basic levels of repair, such as:

the Repairing Standard
the Tolerable Standard

A letting agent may organise repairs on your behalf.

If your property does not meet the Repairing Standard or the Tolerable Standard and you refuse to carry out the repair work, your tenant might report you to the Housing and Property Chamber.
