Hi there, I was just wondering if anyone knows whats rights people have when they are given accommodation as an agricultural worker (regarding maintaining the home?) My parents have lived in their house for about 15 years and in all that time they have only ever had new windows put in by an outside contractor- everything else has been financed by my folks/ my father has done DIY. The reason why I am asking this is because they have so many problems regarding heating, hot water, and shoddy fixtures. My dad tries his best (he can put off jobs, I think it overwhelms him tbh) but I thought that it would be up to his employer, who provides the house? I keep telling them that they should get the boss to sort it out, but my Mum just says 'Your dad won't ask.' I think he's scared. I'd really like to help them. I've already checked out the gov.uk site regarding basic tenancy rights, but there is nothing there re maintaining the place.
Thanks
