I rent out 2 of the rooms in my house. Last year I used the rent-a-room scheme discount to offset my tax however this year I've had significant expenditure to repair fencing and walls in the house and want to use that to offset the income as it will likely be more efficient.

My question is, how much of the expenditure can I offset. Is it 100% or a proportion based on how much of the house is let out (and if so, is that a proportion based only on the no. of bedrooms let or the proportion of the house that they have access to?)?

Many thanks!
