Landlord Property Maintenance Northampton – Before

0
0

We were asked by a letting agent client to attend a property in Northampton and carry out a complete re decoration of a large 4 bedroom house. The property had been empty for some time and had been neglected by the previous tenant with some interesting “DIY” modifications! Due to it being empty with no heating, there were damp problems with paper peeling in several of the bedrooms.

The wall paper had to be stripped which was 4 layers thick in places, as the property was old some of the plaster came away when removing it.  Therefore we had to re board and plaster where required and did extensive sanding down to the walls, to save the landlord money, rather than plastering throughout we used a Polycell base coat and a Polycell Smooth Over. These products will fill in minor cracks and crevices to give a decent surface in preparation for painting, in an ideal world we could of employed a plasterer to carry out works throughout the property but have to be mindful of the landlords budget. We removed all of the carpets and underlay, fitted new skirting where required and carried out minor repairs to floor boards. Once all our preparation work was completed we were ready to begin painting and fit new carpets. You will be able to view the results in our next blog.
