In May 2015, I became a landlord for the first time. I'm renting out my late mother's house after it failed to sell, so I'm a bit of an accidental landlord really.
I'm currently trying to do my tax return. It all seems relatively straightforward but I have a query about allowances. I understand that maintenance is an allowance but improvements are not. I had to totally replace 3 ancient aluminium Windows with UPVC windows as they were leaking really badly and the wooden frames were rotten. Repair wasn't possible. My question is, does this count as maintenance or an improvement?
Many thanks
