It may depend on what is meant by "promised (to reduce)"
But I don't think Hardswell has an obligation to reduce the rent- Josie had the work done before the offer was made by Hardswell to reduce the rent. Next time Josie should make an agreemment before having any work done.
I'm no lawyer but that seems common sense to me

The answer would also depend on what is being studied at what level as answers can differ accordingly, obviously not the legal answer but the context it's answered in ie more practical or academic and to what degree of detail. I am thinking (hoping?) not a law degree student given the OP's presentation.
Unfortunately posting full questions does not tend to attract much of a response on here save the "do your own homework" one. There are legal eagles about, however, it was the doing their own work that helped them get to be legal eagles!
If you could at least break it down a bit and show you've done at least some of the relevant research yourself and maybe raise a particular issue you have or concept you don't quite understand or you are not sure if what you think is correct, you would probably get far more constructive answers. A please never hurts either.

Factor, especially given the title of the question, it looks to me like it's quite a basic question on the elements of a contract in law (offer, acceptance, consideration with an emphasis on the latter, was there valid consideration in order to form a contract) so that is where what you say comes into play and there may be other things the OP would need to account for to cover the area of law properly.
Saying that, if it's not an academic exercise, say someone studying to be a more practical legal advisor eg CAB, the answer would be essentially the same but the answer constructed differently on a more practical advice level.
