We have given notice on the house we have been renting. There are a number of damp patches now dry in spots where there were water leaks. LL repaired leaks but didn't bother to repainting, which we were ok with. Now that we have given more than a months notice, LL wants to paint ASAP in preparation for the next tenants.
I have been very agreeable about showing the flats to prospective tenants and making the place presentable and generally being an ideal tenant. However the disruption that painting will cause I really don't want to deal with, especially with DCs around. We are getting ready to move!
Can I legally say No? And if so, what's the best way to do this? I would like to end on good terms if we can. I just think this is unreasonable amount of hassle. I want to box up, move, give the place a a final clean and then hand keys over. No fuss.
New tenants are already signed by the way.
