Landlords are generally allowed to charge their tenants for any repairs for cleaning services that are needed to bring the rental unit back to its pre-tenancy condition. If damage is the fault of the tenant, their pets, or their guests, the landlord can charge them for the repairs.
It’s important to note that a landlord cannot use a tenant’s security deposit to help repair normal wear and tear damage. Security deposits are used to cover excessive damage to the unit, like stained carpets or pet damage. If the lawn and garden are not maintained as per the rental agreement, then the security deposit can also be used for this.
