Garden clearance in Essex: Homeowners vs renters

Homeowners

• You’re usually responsible for keeping your outdoor space safe and tidy
• If you’re selling your home, a garden clear-up can help boost kerb appeal
• If the garden affects a neighbour (e.g. overhanging brambles), you're legally required to keep it under control

Renters

• Check your tenancy agreement, as garden maintenance is often your responsibility
• If the garden was clear when you moved in, you may be expected to keep it that way
• For serious issues (e.g. unsafe waste, overgrown trees), contact your landlord or letting agent
