A word on ‘wear and tear’. In the context of a rental, fair “wear and tear” means damage to carpets, fixtures, fittings and furniture that would be reasonable depending on the length of the tenancy. For example, a worn carpet and paint are reasonable, especially if a tenancy lasted years. You can’t be expected to not touch the carpet whilst you live there.
However, if you break anything further than what would be considered reasonable for normal, everyday living, then it is your job to fix it before you leave. Otherwise, you can risk not getting all of your deposit back due to the cost of the landlord making these fixes.
For 'managed' properties often photos would have been taken at the start of the tenancy, so if in doubt check with the Managing Agent how things looked when moving in and what would be considered fair 'wear and tear'.
