If HOA requires owners to power wash decks can an owner landlord hold tenant responsible and charge a fine if tenant does not power wash the deck?
The landlord is required by HOA, I'll suspect, to mow the lawn, too. The lease may require that you mow it. If the landlord expects you to power wash your deck, that will have a similar clause in your lease agreement. If the lease places the responsibility on the tenant, you signed the lease and it is a contract. If it isn't there, you can probably argue successfully that it isn't your responsibility. If the landlord provides access to a power washer and provides training on how to properly perform the power washing and has that responsibility spelled out in the lease as the tenant's responsibility then you had better get to washing or hire one of the landlord's service providers to do it.
