Surface Repair for Landlords & Letting Agents
Tenant damage and normal wear and tear are an inevitable part of managing a rental property. When tenants move out and the inventory check reveals chips, scratches, and surface damage, the pressure is on to get the property back to a lettable standard quickly — and without spending more than you need to. Shazam Repairs is the surface repair partner for landlords and letting agents across the UK, delivering fast, affordable repairs that protect your deposit deductions and get your property back on the market.
Common Tenant Damage We Repair
After a tenancy ends, the most common surface damage we’re called to fix includes chipped and scratched baths and shower trays, burns and chips on kitchen worktops, scratched and damaged laminate and wood flooring, chips and scuffs on kitchen cupboard doors, damaged tiles, scratched and marked uPVC windows and doors, and scuffed and chipped walls, skirting boards, and door frames.
Why Repair Beats Replacement for Rental Properties
Replacement is almost always slower and more expensive than repair. A bath replacement takes 2–3 days and costs £500–£1,500; a bath chip repair takes 2 hours and costs £80–£200. For landlords managing deposit disputes, having a professional repair invoice is also stronger evidence than a replacement quote — repair clearly demonstrates that damage was restored to its pre-tenancy condition.
Portfolio Landlords & Letting Agents
For letting agents and portfolio landlords managing multiple properties, we offer priority booking and the ability to manage repair programmes across multiple properties from a single point of contact. We can provide detailed reports and invoices suitable for use in deposit disputes and section 21 proceedings.
