Yes, tenants are often allowed to customise the property to suit their business needs during the lease period. However, tenants need to seek prior approval from the landlord for any major alterations or modifications. Additionally, tenants should keep detailed records of the changes made, as this will be helpful when reinstating the property to its original condition.
The timeframe for completing reinstatement works is usually specified in the lease agreement. Tenants are typically required to complete the reinstatement within a certain period after the lease ends or before handing over the property to the landlord.
