Whether you need urgent lock changes, property inspections or a full clear and clean, we handle your property professionally, securely and in line with legal requirements.
Acting as agents on the day of eviction
Repossession is a sensitive and often complex process. We attend on eviction day, meet the bailiffs and act as your agents throughout. We work with both County Court and High Court bailiffs, making sure access is gained safely, the property is secured immediately afterwards, and all required services are carried out on your behalf.
Our repossession services
Gaining entry and lock changes
- Entry through all external and internal doors
- Non-destructive methods wherever possible
- Locks upgraded to meet or exceed minimum security standards
- Side gates, garages and outbuildings also secured
- Experience with Yale, mortise, euro cylinder and deadlocks
Changing every lock means the previous occupants’ keys no longer give access, and the property is safe straight away.
Drain down and utility shut-off
If a property is to remain empty, we recommend a full drain down and shut-off of services. We switch off water, gas and electricity, and drain loft tanks and central heating systems, reducing the risk of leaks, damage and accidents.
Boarding and shuttering
Where extra protection is needed, we board or shutter windows and doors using quality plywood and security screws. This prevents re-entry by previous occupants or trespassers and deters vandalism.
House sitting during possession retrieval
When former occupants need to collect belongings, our staff supervise access:
- Making sure keys are not passed back
- Preventing removal of fixtures or fittings
- Completing paperwork with before and after photographs
- Providing impartial oversight for landlords and agents
Clearance and cleaning
Many repossessed properties are left with waste or abandoned possessions. We provide full clearance with licensed disposal, deep cleaning of every room, and preparation for marketing, letting or sale.
Property inspections
Empty properties are at risk of break-ins, fly-tipping and squatting. Our inspections run fortnightly or to a schedule you set, checking utilities, internal rooms and external areas, with a written report and photographs after every visit.
Garden maintenance
Kerb appeal matters when selling or re-letting. We offer one-off or ongoing garden maintenance, including grass cutting, hedge trimming and waste removal, typically from April to November.
Why choose us
Repossessions can be challenging. We combine professionalism with discretion, so properties are secured and clients are supported throughout.
