Landlords are subject to legal obligations
The duty requiring landlords to take reasonable care to protect anyone who might reasonably be expected to be harmed by defects in the state of the premises from injury or damage to their property caused by a relevant defect of which the landlord knew or ought to have known is the one that pertains most to repairs. This obligation, which is owed to the renter, the tenant’s family, and guests, is outlined in Section 4 of the Defective Premises Act of 1972.
All people who perform work related to the provision of a dwelling are required by section 1 of the same act to undertake the job in a professional or workmanlike way and to use adequate materials in order to ensure that the dwelling is fit for human habitation when the work is complete.
Control of locations considered to be harmful to health is provided for under the environmental protection act of 1990. In addition to private tenancies, these regulations also apply to municipal and housing association rentals.
