Under Art. 21 LAU, the landlord is required to carry out all necessary repairs to keep the dwelling in a habitable condition without raising the rent. This includes boiler replacements and structural repairs.

The tenant pays for "small repairs" resulting from everyday wear and tear (e.g., changing light bulbs, fixing a loose hinge), as well as any damage caused by their misuse.
