What am I responsible for repairing?
In some instances you are responsible for the upkeep of your home. These include:
- Repairs that are needed as a result of damage caused by you or your family or visitors
- Repairs to appliances, fittings etc which you have installed
- Minor repairs (see below)
- Sweeping the chimney
- Broken glass.
If damage has been caused maliciously and you cannot provide us with a crime reference number from the police you will be also be charged for the repair.
