Planned Maintenance

Partnering up with our maintenance department offers a combination of reactive and planned maintenance, ensuring that all building works are kept to a minimum and cause the least amount of disruption to occupiers.
Whether an urgent leaking tap or routine freshening up between tenancies, we have a dedicated team of highly skilled tradesmen based in Covent Garden covering most of Central London. Our local presence and knowledge results in both quick call-out times and timely resolutions to a wide variety of tasks using experienced handymen and specialists.
A same-day reporting procedure by a qualified account manager, followed by fully itemised job completion reports with photographs, provides householders, landlords and property managers peace of mind and a full record of each visit.
Our reactive maintenance team focuses on a prompt call-out service to address a sudden breakdown or safety issue, including collecting keys to access unoccupied residential or commercial premises.
For planned maintenance work, we carry out scheduled routine tasks including decorating and periodic tests, allowing our clients to allocate resources by spreading costs and minimising future problems.
