Need a maintenance contractor for your properties?
When a tenant moves out, a flat usually needs a bit of everything: walls repainted, a door rehung, a cupboard fixed, the bathroom regrouted and a cracked pane replaced. Booking four trades for that means four diaries to line up and a property sitting empty in between.
John covers those trades himself. He's a carpenter by trade who also paints and decorates, tiles and glazes, so one call covers most of what a void or a repair list needs.
He works for landlords and letting agents across Islington and north London from his base at 124 Seven Sisters Road, Holloway, N7.

Why end-of-tenancy work matters
Redecoration and damage are among the most common reasons for tenancy deposit disputes. A property that's properly made good between tenancies makes the check-out and the next check-in straightforward.
It also gets the property back on the market sooner. An empty flat earns nothing, so the faster the work is done, the better.
