Landlord entry & access
Except in an emergency or where it’s impracticable, a Maine landlord must give reasonable notice of the intent to enter and enter only at reasonable times; 24 hours is presumed reasonable absent evidence to the contrary (§6025(2)). The tenant can’t unreasonably refuse entry for inspections, repairs, or showings, and can’t change the locks without giving the landlord a duplicate key within 48 hours (§6025(1)).
An unlawful, unreasonable, or harassing entry entitles the tenant to actual damages or $250, whichever is greater (raised from $100 in 2026), plus injunctive relief and attorney fees after a contested hearing (§6025(3)). These rights can’t be waived (§6025(4)).
