Work hard, play hard. It's a great mantra but does a hectic work schedule leave you with no energy to enjoy your time off Property maintenance is a 24-hour-a-day business and if you try to work every one of those hours, you'll soon crash and burn. Perhaps it's your staff that are struggling with the work/life balance, especially if they're asked to man the emergency 'phone lines after hours and at weekends.
Here at Everything Lettings our clients often contact us frazzled and overworked. They realise that outsourcing some or all of their property maintenance duties will help with time planning and personnel management. After just a week of partnering with Everything Lettings many of our clients find they are less stressed, happier and more efficient. Roy Fuller, Sales Director at the letting-specific maintenance provider, says a buoyant lettings market has led to an increase in business: "One of our clients came to us at breaking point. Its growing portfolio of 450 managed properties, spread across three branches, was proving to be a drain on resources. The directors were worried about the additional pressure put on team members, especially those on call for out-of-hours emergencies. Choosing to outsource to Everything Lettings meant a weight was lifted off their shoulders - you could almost hear the sigh of relief once the account was up and running."
Everything Lettings is dedicated to making the lives of letting agents and property managers easier. We provide a full planned and emergency maintenance service, with a panel of vetted and qualified tradespeople providing nationwide coverage on a 24/7, 365 day-a-year basis.
Roy continues: "Many agents and managers start by using our out-of-hours emergency maintenance cover, which eliminates the need for any team member to be on call during unsociable hours. We set up a white-labelled emergency phone line for tenants to call, which is staffed by professional call handlers. Our handlers know how to qualify a real emergency and will dispatch the correct contractor and liaise with the tenant to book the visit. All this happens while you're sleeping soundly or enjoying the weekend with the family - we'll just report back to you as and when a job is complete. And as we work to agreed service levels and set prices, our clients need not worry about money or professionalism. Many clients find our out-of-hours service so reliable and efficient they choose to outsource all property maintenance to us, included planned jobs and gas safety inspections."
