How we inspect your accommodation

If you are living in university managed accommodation, our Campus Services team will carry out inspections of the communal areas of your accommodation and bedrooms at least twice per academic year.

 

You will be given prior warning of this. However, the exact date/ time of the inspection will not be specified.

 

During the inspection, we will be looking for anything that may indicate you are not following the requirements of your accommodation contract. This will include:

 

  • checking for an overall standard of cleanliness

  • checks for damages

  • evidence of smoking

  • unreported maintenance issues

  • general health and safety concerns

  • prohibited items

 

If your accommodation does not meet the standards set out in our Terms and Conditions during your inspection, you may be subject to future additional inspections, and will be responded to in line with the Misconduct in Accommodation procedure.

 

You can read the Accommodation Terms and Conditions and Misconduct in Accommodation on our Policies and documents page
