Our behaviour rules are mandatory, as outlined in the Full Tenancy Agreement you signed.
See the full Index of Behaviour Clauses in the Agreement to look up your specific obligations.
Key points:
Please conduct yourself at all times with consideration to your housemates, and in particular, be aware of your noise levels as they can unnecessary upset and tension within a household.
Quiet times are between 9.00pm and 8.00am Sunday to Friday and 10.00pm to 9.00am on Saturday night/Sunday morning.
Be aware of when housemates/other tenants are resting or sleeping outside these times.
The washing machine or tumble dryer to be used after 8.00 am on weekdays, 9.00am Saturdays and 10am Sundays.
After 9pm you should keep noise levels to a minimum, and the kitchen should be vacated by 10pm except for preparing drinks.
Please be particularly aware that kitchen utensils (e.g. chopping boards) and machines (e.g. a liquidiser) can reverberate and make a lot of noise.
During the evenings, normal use of kitchen is defined as no more than 1 hour at any one time. This ensures that all tenants get fair usage. We have some tenants who spend much longer than this on a Sunday afternoon for example, which is fine.
