wall, what rights do I have? The place I am in now is just a basic house; small kitchen, lounge (that only contains tenants property), 2 bathrooms, 2 toilets (1 in a bathroom), recently our landlord (or more specifically his wife) has said that she wants to knock down the wall separating our Kitchen and Living room to make one large room. I would like to know what are my rights as a tenant rent wise as this will disrupt my life and may also damage equipment belonging to Sky TV and virgin media. The walls are in a general state of disrepair but they seem to want to do an aesthetic change when there are a lot more important things to change. (e.g. repairing damage to walls and repainting, which has not been done for years...)
We pay rent weekly for the whole house as a group, which includes the use of the kitchen, living room and all other communal areas, as these are going to be affected by the building work can i get my rent modified accordingly?
I don't object to the building work but would be happy to keep the current layout of the property as although small it works, I was wondering if I can get my rent changed during the period of work as I am not getting all the facilities in the tenancy agreement and monthly outgoings will be affected as if the living room is out of action then we are being charged for a service we cannot use in circumstance beyond our control
THIS IS A PROPERTY IN ENGLAND SO PLEASE ONLY DIRECT ME TO LEGAL SITES RELEVANT TO ME. I don't mean this to be snapish but I don't want to find a lot of answers telling me to go to sites that are irrelevant such as taa.org, which is Texas! I did put UK in my initial question
I have an assured shorthold tenancy that is 6 months and is rolling after that, it expires at the start of March, is it a wise idea to get a written 6 month copy of this to prevent unwated work?
