Appliance repair in Southend-on-sea: Renters vs homeowners

For homeowners If you own your home, you're responsible for maintaining and repairing any appliances you own. Keep hold of warranties and guarantees in case you're covered for repairs or replacements.

For renters The responsibility depends on your tenancy agreement. If the appliance came with the property, your landlord is usually responsible for repairs. But if it’s your own appliance, you’ll need to sort the repair.

Either way, if you're unsure, ask your letting agent or check the small print.
