🍂 September in the UK – What Landlords & Tenants Should Do Now
As September begins, we enter not only a new month but also the final stretch of the year. In the UK, this is the time when summer fades into autumn — and with that change comes new responsibilities for both landlords and tenants.
At Gallery Properties, we believe that being proactive today helps avoid stress and costly repairs tomorrow. Here’s what you can do this September to stay ahead:
🏡 For Landlords: Prepare Properties for the Season Ahead
Service boilers & heating systems before the cold sets in — tenants will thank you later.
Check insulation and windows to improve energy efficiency and reduce bills.
Clear gutters and drains to prevent blockages caused by falling autumn leaves.
Review tenancy agreements for those expiring before winter — renew early to avoid voids.
🧑🤝🧑 For Tenants: Simple Steps for a Safer Home
Test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms to make sure they’re working.
Report any maintenance issues (like leaks, drafts, or faulty appliances) as soon as possible.
Keep outdoor areas clear of leaves and debris to reduce slip hazards.
Begin planning for higher energy usage in colder months.
📊 Why September Matters
The September–December period is always a busy one: students are settling in, families are adjusting routines, and the weather changes fast. Taking small steps now — whether you’re renting or managing — ensures homes are safe, warm, and ready for whatever the season brings.
At Gallery Properties, we’re here to support landlords and tenants across Worcestershire with expert management, seasonal advice, and peace of mind.
Let’s make this September the start of a smooth, secure, and successful end to 2025.
Warm regards,
