The distribution of maintenance costs between tenant and landlord is based primarily on the distinction between routine minor maintenance and major repairs. Generally, the tenant is responsible for minor repairs and regular maintenance to keep the property in good working order: replacing light bulbs, maintaining seals, small repairs to handles, upkeep of the private garden, cleaning of equipment, etc.
The landlord, meanwhile, must cover major works and repairs related to wear and tear or construction defects: replacing a boiler at the end of its life, roof repairs, replacing a severely degraded window, bringing installations up to standard, and structural repairs.
In case of doubt, it is recommended to refer to the lease agreement and the legal texts applicable in your country, which often specify a detailed list of rental charges and work to be covered by the landlord.
CHAUFFAGE SERVICE PARIS is responsible for the annual gas boiler maintenance in the Paris region.
