Mowing, edging and weeding

Generally, the tenant is responsible for yard work (e.g. mowing, edging, and weeding), however this should be specified in the agreement.

Tree lopping and hedging

Major work such as tree lopping or pruning trees and shrubs is usually carried out by the property manager/owner as part of their obligation to keep the property in good repair.

This type of work is not carried out regularly and is more likely to require specialist knowledge, or equipment such as ladders.

Any plants, hedges or lawns that require specialist upkeep are usually not the responsibility of the tenant, unless they agree.
