Property Maintenance in Harrow & North West London

EliteShires Property Services is one contractor for a landlord's or agent's certificates, repairs and void turnarounds in Harrow, Kenton, Stanmore and Edgware. The EPC, EICR, gas safety check and PAT testing can be done in one visit alongside repairs, every job is photographed, and we hold the renewal diary. Pay per job or on a monthly account; repairs are hourly from £45 to £60 depending on the trade.

You are coordinating five contractors, chasing certificates that expire on different dates, and trying to get evidence that work was actually done, usually while a property sits empty and earns nothing.

For a landlord or a managing agent, the problem is rarely finding a trade. It is coordinating five of them, chasing certificates that expire on different dates, and getting evidence that the work was actually done. We exist to be the single number for all of it, which is the whole reason a compliance and trades business in one is worth more than either separately.

Property Maintenance at a glance

What property maintenance with us includes

• EPC, EICR, gas safety and PAT testing coordinated into one visit
• Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms checked and fitted where needed
• Reactive repairs across plumbing, electrics and general trades
• Void turnarounds and end-of-tenancy snagging
• Photographic before-and-after reporting
• A certificate diary with reminders before anything expires
• Monthly consolidated invoicing for agents and portfolio landlords

One visit, everything certified

During a void we can complete the EPC, the EICR, the gas safety check and the PAT testing alongside the plumbing, electrical, decorating and joinery snagging, in a single coordinated window rather than five separate appointments across three weeks. That is faster to re-let and cheaper in call-out costs.

Who keeps track of renewal dates?

We do. Gas safety runs annually, the EICR at least every five years, and an EPC lasts ten years but only needs replacing when you next market or re-let. Smoke and carbon monoxide alarms need to be working on the first day of every new tenancy. Across a portfolio those dates scatter. We hold the diary, remind you before anything expires and, where sensible, align renewals so visits can be grouped.

How it works, step by step

1. Send us the property list or the check-out report
2. We price the work and schedule it into as few visits as possible
3. Certificates and repairs are completed in the same window wherever we can
4. Everything is photographed and reported
5. You get one invoice, and we hold the renewal diary

What you end up with: One contractor, one invoice and one diary for the whole property, and a property that is re-lettable sooner because the work happened in one window rather than five.

Why people trust us

• Gas work, electrical inspection and energy assessment carried out under the relevant registrations, ask to see the card
• Every price confirmed before we attend, and not revised afterwards
• Coded observations quoted line by line, so you can take the work elsewhere
• A time slot rather than a morning-or-afternoon window
• Work photographed before and after, and reported
• We tell you when you do not need something we sell

We are building a review profile under this name and would rather show you none than borrow someone else's. Ask us for references from landlords and we will put you in touch.

Who this is for

Portfolio landlords, letting and managing agents, and anyone who has spent a void chasing five separate contractors.

Mistakes we see most often

Scheduling certificates and repairs as separate visits, which multiplies call-out costs and extends the void. And letting the renewal dates drift apart across a portfolio until every month has something expiring. Grouping them where the dates allow saves real money over a year.

What affects the price

How much can be coordinated into one visit. Several certificates and a snagging list handled in a single window costs materially less than the same work across five separate call-outs, which is the main reason to use one contractor.

Whichever applies, you are given the figure before we attend and we do not revise it afterwards. If something genuinely unforeseen turns up mid-job we stop and tell you rather than adding it to the invoice.

Reactive repairs

Tenant-reported faults handled directly, with an agreed spend threshold below which we simply get on with it and above which we come to you first. In a genuine emergency we make safe immediately and tell you straight away. Leaving a hazard in place while awaiting authorisation is not a service.

Monthly accounts

For agents and multi-property landlords we work on account with monthly consolidated invoicing rather than a payment per job. Straightforward for your bookkeeping and it means minor jobs do not carry disproportionate administration.

Where we will tell you no

We are not a builder. Structural work, roofing beyond minor repair, damp requiring investigation and full extensions are not ours, and we will say so and point you to someone rather than attempting it. Being the single number only works if we are honest about its limits.
