Description
Each year, we spend large amounts on repairing empty properties
and getting them ready for occupation. While some of this work is
due to normal wear and tear, a lot is for repairing items that have
been damaged - either deliberately or through neglect - and on
removing belongings and rubbish left by the former tenant. To
recover these costs, we have a system called recharging. This means
that if we have to remove any items or rubbish from your home after
you leave, we will charge you what it cost us to have this work
done. We will also charge you for any repairs we have to do because
of your misuse or neglect of your home.
During your tenancy, we also make a charge for any repairs we
need to do for safety or other reasons - even if these would
normally be your responsibility - or repairs that are needed
because of damage you have caused.
