Property maintenance responsibilities in Thailand are governed by the Civil and Commercial Code, which establishes clear duties for both landlords and tenants.
Landlord Responsibilities
Under CCC §546–550, landlords must:
Property Delivery
- Deliver the property in good, usable condition suitable for its intended purpose
- Ensure the property is fit for habitation
Major Repairs
Exceptions Landlords are not required to make repairs if:
- The damage was caused by the tenant's own use
- The repair qualifies as minor or routine maintenance
Tenant Responsibilities
Tenants are responsible for:
- Ordinary maintenance — cleaning and general upkeep
- Minor repairs — replacing light bulbs, fixing minor leaks
- Tenant-caused damage — repairing or compensating for damage caused by themselves or their household
- Notifying the landlord when issues requiring repair are discovered
Tenant Remedies When Property Is Defective
If the landlord fails to make necessary repairs, tenants may:
- Issue a written request for repairs within a reasonable timeframe
- Terminate the lease if the defect renders the property unusable for its intended purpose
- Claim damages if the landlord's failure to repair causes loss
Right of Entry for Inspections and Repairs
- Tenants must not obstruct necessary repairs
- Landlords must give prior written notice before entering (except in emergencies)
- Emergency access — e.g., burst pipes, fire — is permitted immediately
Best Practices for Landlords
- Define maintenance responsibilities clearly in the lease — Specify who is responsible for what
- Respond quickly to repair requests — Preserves property value and tenant goodwill
- Create a preventive maintenance schedule — Regular inspections of major systems
- Document all repairs — Keep receipts and before/after photographs
- Maintain a list of reliable contractors — For fast turnaround on repairs
