SMOKE ALARMS
All properties are required to be fitted with smoke alarms on each floor. It is our recommendation that lithium battery style or mains wired are fitted.
CARBON MONOXIDE ALARMS
All properties are required to be fitted with carbon monoxide alarms wherever there is a gas appliance. It is also law that a carbon monoxide alarm is fitted where there is a solid fuel burner i.e. woodburner, openfire etc. It is our recommendation that lithium battery style are fitted.
REPAIRS
Unfortunately, at some point during a tenancy a property may need some repair work carried out. At the start of the tenancy tenants are informed that if a repair is required within the property they are to contact us and inform us of the problem. Once a property is tenanted you as a Landlord have an obligation to ensure it is well maintained. Carrying out repairs quickly is often as important for you as it is the tenant and we have found issues can be resolved quickly with local trades people that we have build a relationship with over the many years we have been in business.
Repairs conducted immediately can save a Landlord money. As a Landlord you must be mindful that tenants do have rights, tenants are within their rights to contact the local Environmental Health Department if repairs are not being attended to quickly. If to be found at fault of not conducting the repair and the ensuing enforcement order could include extra repairs and a significantly higher final bill. Work not done will be carried out by them and they may add a hefty additional charge on top of the repair bill.
