Goldmile Properties Ltd v Lechouritis
[2003] 2 P&CR 1
Key Principle
Where a landlord's repairing covenant and the tenant's covenant for quiet enjoyment come into tension, the landlord must carry out the repairs but is required only to take all reasonable steps (not all possible precautions) to avoid disturbing the tenant; neither covenant automatically overrides the other.
