Have a look in the Tenancy Agreement that you signed when you took over the property, it's usually the tenant who decorates, but you must seek permission from the landlord.

Landlord always pays. Why not suggest that you decorate the room on condition that he gives you a week's free rent. Get it in writing.

You don't own your apartment so you would not be allowed to make structural changes in it. Your landlord I'm sure doesn't want to "decorate" the two rooms.....he wants to "update" them with new fixtures, appliances or cabinets and such. You are allowed to "decorate" them afterward with any towels, dishes, pictures, you would like.

Some land lords allow the occupants to redecorate, as ong as it is an 'improvement' If you get ideas and colour samples etc and show these to them, an equal decision can be made.
Lanlords are resonsible for water, gas and electricity failures within the place, such as leaks, or plug that doesnt seem to work etc.

Hiya,
I am a landlady and your landlord should pay but bear in mind as we are in business he prob will spend the least he can. If any of my houses need decorating I pay and the tenants top it up if they want.

With my houses I decorate them prior to the new tennat moving in. In the contracts it states they can redecorate at their cost but it must be returned to the original paint scheme.

i don't think you can decorate at all it's down to the landlord contact him and ask if he thought any more about decorating it might give him a nudge to do something about it. xx
