GARDENS
The tenancy agreement will provide for the tenants being responsible for the upkeep of the garden only if it is for their exclusive use. Communal gardens should be maintained as part of a wider lease probably expensed in the form of a service charge that the owner will be liable for.
It is sensible to provide a garden that does not necessarily require too much time or expertise to maintain. Mowing lawns and weeding borders and patios should not stretch the capabilities of most people, but trimming hedges and pruning trees may require the input of a professional.
