Generally speaking, the landlord is reponsible for major repairs to the rental property resulting from wear and tear or specific defects. Any smaller repairs or maintenance are performed at the tenant’s expense.

Heating system

For heating, follow standard Belgian guidelines: keep temperature under 25°C, set to around 12°C when leaving, avoid opening windows with heating on, maintain minimum 10°C in winter.

Bathrooms

Clean bathroom fixtures regularly with timescale-safe products to protect surfaces. Avoid forcing taps during cleaning to prevent damage and wear.

Kitchen

Regularly clean appliances and utensils using appropriate products to maintain proper functioning. For dishwashers, ensure to check salt, dishwasher liquid, and detergent levels every time you run it. 

Extractor hood

It is important to clean the filter of the extractor hood every two months. All you need to do is to remove it and wash it with hot water and washing-up liquid.

Oven

For a conventional and fairly clean oven, simply use bicarbonate of soda sprayed with white wine vinegar. Sponge off the residue for a good-as-new oven.
