In determining the standard of repair required by the Landlord under this clause, regard shall be had to the age, character and prospective life of the Premises and the locality in which it is situated.
Repairing Obligations. Practices need to carefully consider their exposure to liability in respect of dilapidations and disrepair. As a starting point a practice will be under an obligation to keep the property clean, tidy and in good repair and condition. Having regard to this fact each practice must carefully consider the definition of “property” and whether it covers the internal and external parts of the premises. The broader the definition the greater a practices’ repairing obligation will be. This aside each practice must be careful to ensure:
i) That their repairing obligations (however broad these are) are subject to a schedule of dilapidations (or condition) which will in turn identify any items of disrepair that existed before the tenant takes occupation. These items will not be the tenant’s responsibility.
ii) That a full and complete schedule of dilapidations (or condition) is carried out by a suitable and qualified professional before the lease is entered into. This is critical and particular care should be taken to check any air conditioning units, air conditioning systems and/or lifts that are located within the premises. If these go wrong they are extremely expensive to put right. The standard lease has optional clauses to cover the fact that a tenant’s repairing obligations will be subject to such a schedule of dilapidations (clause 24.1). These optional clauses should be included.
Repairing Obligations of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 (as amended) places an obligation on landlords to keep in repair and proper working order the installations for the supply of water, gas, electricity and sanitation including basins, sink, baths and sanitary conveniences and the installations of space heating and heating of water.

This obligation arises only after notice has been given to the Landlord or the Agent by the Tenant of any lack of repair.

7.2 Collateral warranties Not applicable
Repairing Obligations. Please be aware that as a landlord you have a statutory obligation under The Homes (Fitness for Habitation Act) 2018 and The Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 to provide, repair and maintain throughout the tenancy your property in a condition that is fit for human habitation and free from identifiable risks. This includes the fabric and structure of the property, the supply for the installation of services, sanitary ware and the provisions for space heating and hot water. For the avoidance of doubt this would include any public, shared or common areas of the property. In addition the requirements of the Defective Premises Act 1972 place a liability on you for any occurrence originating from defect or lack of repair that you knew or should have known of. If the tenant suffers a loss due to a defect you, as the landlord, may be liable to compensate the tenant. It is important that you fully understand your responsibilities and to this end we will provide you with a copy of our standard tenancy agreement which outlines your obligation to the tenant. In addition we will provide you with a copy of the government leaflet ‘How to Rent: the checklist for renting in England’ which must be provided to tenants. Further information is also available at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx.xx/xxxxxxx (the section entitled ‘Repairs, a Guide for Landlords and Tenants.)
