What it is

Property maintenance specifically built around how landlords and letting agents actually work — fast end-of-tenancy turnarounds, scheduled inspections, photo-reported repairs, and a single contact for everything from a dripping tap to a stripped-down repaint between tenants.

Who it's for

Private landlords with one or several properties, accidental landlords needing a dependable contractor, and small letting agents in South Wales who'd rather call one person than juggle five trades.

When you need it

Between tenancies (the obvious one), every six months on longer tenancies, ahead of inspections, and any time a tenant reports an issue you don't want to ignore.

Why professional help matters

Slow or scattershot maintenance loses you good tenants, racks up disrepair risk, and quietly damages property values. A reliable contractor on speed-dial pays for itself many times over.

What it costs to wait

Small problems don't staysmall for long.

Most of the expensive repairs we see started as cheap ones that got ignored. Here's what we typically see — and what to look out for.

  • Bad reviews from disrepair

    Online reviews from frustrated tenants follow a property for years and reduce future demand. Quick, visible response prevents most of them.

  • Disrepair claims

    Unaddressed maintenance can escalate into legal claims under the Homes (Fitness for Human Habitation) Act. Documented response history protects you.

  • Compounded turnaround costs

    Letting a small list of issues stack up over a tenancy means a much bigger bill at changeover — and longer void periods.

Our process

    Initial property visit

    Walk-round, baseline photo report and prioritised list of what needs doing now vs at next opportunity.

  2. 02

    Agreed scope & price

    Written quote, broken down by job. You approve before any work starts.

  3. 03

    Scheduled or reactive

    Planned checks (six-monthly works for most), or reactive call-outs prioritised for ongoing clients.

  4. 04

    Work + photo report

    Every visit comes with a PDF photo report of what was checked and done — ready to forward to agents, tenants or insurers.

  5. 05

    Clear invoice

    Itemised, per property, in the landlord's or agent's name.

Why it pays off

The benefits, inplain English.

No vague claims — just the practical things you'll actually notice.

  • Fast response

    Existing clients are prioritised — most reactive jobs attended within 1–2 working days.

  • Documented for compliance

    PDF photo reports per visit. Useful for disrepair defence, insurance and inspections.

  • Lower void periods

    Quick, thorough turnarounds get the property back on the market faster.

  • One contact, every job

    Stop juggling separate trades for small lists.

In detail

What's actuallyinvolved.

Below is the typical scope of our landlord work across South Wales.

End-of-tenancy turnarounds

Walk-round with the inventory or check-out report, a tidy list of repairs, touch-up painting, silicone refreshes, lock changes and a final clean walk-through — turnaround typically inside a working week.

Scheduled inspections

Six- or twelve-monthly visual checks covering smoke and CO alarms, visible damp signs, window and door condition, kitchen and bathroom seals, external paintwork and roofline.

Reactive repairs

Tenant-reported issues — dripping taps, sticking doors, blown plaster patches, fence damage, gate latches, light switches and sockets that need replacing.

Pre-letting refreshes

Repaints in landlord-friendly neutrals, small kitchen and bathroom refreshes, garden tidies, jet-washing of paths and patios to lift kerb appeal.

Compliance support

Smoke and CO alarm checks and battery changes, fire-door closer adjustments in HMOs, and clear records of what was done and when.

HMOs & holiday lets

Quick changeover capability for short-term lets and ongoing maintenance of shared houses with multiple touch-points.

Residential vs commercial

We also cover small commercial lets — offices, salons and treatment rooms — to the same documented standard.
