Structural repairs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In construction, structural repairs is a technical term describing maintenance of a property structure in order to bring it up to local health and safety standards. It is contrasted to renovations or non-structural repairs. Unlike renovations, structural repairs add relatively little value to a property.[1][2][3]

Leases often include provisions that define what types of changes amount to structural repairs and assign responsibility to either the tenant or the landlord.[4]
