Damage is considered to be any deterioration to the property over and above that which is accepted as ‘fair wear and tear’. Some damages are easy to identify, for example where items have been broken. Others can be less obvious, such as marks left on the wall from blu-tack or mattress stains but could still result in deductions from your deposit.
