Do you allow tenants to make improvements?

I just leased my newly rehabbed home to a tenant. Everything is going well so far. He paid 2 months up front and has been a pleasure dealing with.

When rehabbing I cut a few corners and went kinda cheap on the kitchen sink option. It’s a bit small.

This tenant is a handyman (so he says) and he called me asking if he can upgrade the kitchen sink to something better and bigger at his own expense. I don’t mind the place being improved but and I have no reason to believe he would do a bad job, but I also don’t want to risk him causing damage or installing something improperly.

How do I handle this situation correctly and protect myself and my house?
