Landlord or tenants responsibility?

If a kitchen faucet is very loose and shakey, and 1 bathroom tap has also become very loose and lost pressure (become stiff and hardly any water comes out) would it be the landlords obligation to have it fixed, or the tenants who have used/worn them?

Landlord. It's normal wear and tear on the Landlords fixtures and fittings.

Oh good I'm the tenant. I just wasn't 100% sure. I've not rented long after previously owning and didn't want to be cheeky and ask for it to be repaired if it was my responsibility Blush

Cheeky?!
It's not something you broke, it's something that broke after a long period of normal use. You're paying to maintain your Landlord's investment, they aren't doing you a favour.

Landlord. Wear and tear assuming you haven't been swinging on it or stuffing glue up it.

Please contact landlord for fix.

Have you read your how to rent guide?
