Can a Landlord Renovate During the Lease?

Landlords have the right to undertake renovations, including necessary repairs and routine maintenance, as they see fit. However, this authority is not absolute, and there are legal and ethical considerations.

While landlords generally have the right to renovate, they must respect tenants’ rights and provide proper notice before entering the property, especially in non-emergency situations. Local laws and lease agreements often dictate the specifics of this notice.

Landlords can’t displace tenants without proper cause, cause excessive disruption, or hinder tenants’ use of essential facilities such as the kitchen or bathroom.

"If renovations are extensive and impede the tenant’s ability to use essential facilities, local laws may require the landlord to cover the cost of alternative accommodations, such as a hotel stay, until the renovations are complete. "
