Can I decorate?

Can I put a lock on my bedroom door?
They understand the need for privacy however locks on doors can create a number of issues. They can be a potential fire hazard and if Rentinc needs to do any maintenance work inside the room they would not have access. In some cases a call out charge will still be charged to the tenant and an additional charge may occur for removing the lock. Another issue is with TV licensing as a locked door creates a separate dwelling which means another TV licence may be required. This can also apply to the Council Tax banding. They may allow an internal lock to be attached (with prior approval from Rentinc) which gives the tenant privacy once in the room.

Small repairs and the day to day running of the property are the tenants responsibility, however in certain circumstances you may not be able to solve the problem and therefore they have instructed Hive Property Services to assist with these issues.
