Alan rents out a section of his shop to a caf owner Dana to operate a small caf. The term of contract for rent begins on 1 September 2021. However, it turned out that due to the old pipes and wiring, the water was not potable and the electricity constantly got cut off.Dana asked Alan to rectify the problems ASAP but Alan dragged his feet, so she went ahead to get a contractor to replace the pipes and to fix the electric wiring. Dana then insists that Alan pays her for these. Alan finds out that the contractor is one of the best and charges more for quick service, which Dana prioritized above all else.Dana also insists on compensation for the lack of maintenance of the external walkway leading directly to the side door to the caf.Alan is reluctant to pay Dana for the above claims, or anything at all.

Is the lack of maintenance of the external walkway considered as an implied term for Alan?

Can Dana claim the cost of cure to Alan for the old pipes & wiring or external walkway? If she can, can she claim for expectation loss or reliance loss?
