Property inventories in Ellesmere Port
We carry out inventory reports, check-ins, mid-term inspections and check-out reports for landlords and letting agents in Ellesmere Port and the villages around it. Reports are sent the same day, and we work 7 days a week from 08:00 to 20:00.
Rented homes we inspect in Ellesmere Port
Ellesmere Port sits between Chester and the Wirral, and much of its rented housing is family homes: semi-detached and terraced houses with gardens, driveways and garages. An inventory for a family house covers the outside as carefully as the inside, from fences and paving to the lawn and any sheds.
There are also flats and smaller terraced houses closer to the town centre. Where a kitchen or bathroom has been refitted, we record the make and condition of the appliances and fittings at check-in, which makes it easier to judge fair wear and tear later.
What an inventory in Ellesmere Port includes
Each inventory is a room-by-room record of condition and contents, written and photographed on the same visit. It covers:
- Walls, ceilings, floors, doors and windows in every room
- Fixtures, fittings, furniture and appliances
- Gardens, driveways, garages and outbuildings
- Photographs of each room and any existing marks
- Meter readings and the keys handed over
The report is sent the same day as the visit, so it can go to the tenant before they move in.
Booking an inventory in Ellesmere Port
Call or email with the address, the number of bedrooms, whether it is furnished and the date you need. We can collect keys from your office or meet the tenant at the property, and the report is sent the same day. The M53 and M56 meet near Ellesmere Port, so it is easy for us to reach from Chester and the Wirral.
We cover Ellesmere Port, Little Sutton, Great Sutton, Hooton, Willaston and Eastham. When a house is going straight to a new tenant, we can complete the check-out and the new inventory on the same visit. For furnished lets, let us know beforehand so we can list the contents.
Fair wear and tear at the end of a tenancy
When a family has lived in a house for several years, some wear is expected. The adjudicators at TDS, DPS and mydeposits take into account how long the tenancy lasted, how many people lived there and the age and condition of each item when deciding whether a deduction is fair. A detailed inventory at the start and a check-out report that compares each room give them the information to do that.
Under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, tenants in England cannot be charged for inventories or check-outs, so the landlord or agent pays for the reports. We record what we find impartially. For longer lets, a mid-term inspection can pick up maintenance issues before they grow.
