Your Home with L&H Homes

• You must keep the inside of your home clean and decorated to a reasonable   standard, and you must carry out any repairs for which you are responsible.
• You must get our written permission if you want to make alterations or improvements to your home, such as fit a shower, fit a satellite dish or alter the structure of your home. (Please refer to your Repair Handbook.)
• You must look after your home in a reasonable manner. You must replace or repair anything that is damaged deliberately or carelessly. We may take legal action against your tenancy or charge you if we need to put right any damage.
• You must keep your garden tidy and free of rubbish. Please do not plant any conifers in your garden.
• You must keep the outside of your home, including shared areas, free of rubbish and litter. Please dispose of your rubbish in line with local refuse arrangements. If you have large items to get rid of, you should contact your local council. A charge may apply.

Living in a flat

If you live in a flat you must also make sure that you:

• Keep shared areas clean, tidy and free from rubbish
• Keep the shared areas free of bikes or any other item that may catch fire or cause a dangerous obstruction
• Do not leave communal doors open or allow strangers into the building
• Do not let children play in the shared areas.

Parking

You must not park a vehicle, except in the proper parking space. You must get our permission before you park any large van, boat, trailer or caravan or an untaxed or unroadworthy vehicle at your home or on any shared areas.
We will remove any vehicles if we have not granted permission for them, and will charge you the cost of doing so.
You must not carry out repairs, other than ordinary maintenance, to any vehicles at your home, on shared areas, or on the road.
