Getting repairs done

Getting repairs done
 

It can be incredibly frustrating when your landlord simply doesn’t respond to your requests for them to maintain and repair your business premises. It can also have significant knock on effects on your trade, especially when your business is customer facing.

The landlord’s liability to repair your premises can also affect your ability to honour your own repairing, maintenance and decorating clauses as well as cause long term damage to the property. Therefore it is important to seek legal advice and take action as soon as a problem becomes apparent. It is important to remember that your business premises is an important asset to your landlord and it is in their interest to repair and maintain it as well as yours.  Conflict is not inevitable and can be avoided if you take the right steps at the right time.
