One business, two sides. Pick the door that sounds like you.
Side one
Holiday lets and short lets
Turnovers between guests, spare keys held, and someone on call when a guest is stuck outside.
Side two
Handyman and decorating
Leaks, doors, flat-pack, a room that needs painting: the jobs you keep meaning to get round to.
Who we help
Most of our time goes on looking after holiday lets. The rest goes on fixing and decorating for anyone who asks. Same hands, same van.
You run an Airbnb or a holiday let and you are tired of being the one with the keys. We turn the place over between guests, keep an eye on it, and tell you what we found.
You do not need a holiday let. If it is dripping, sticking, wobbling or needs a coat of paint, send us a photo and we will tell you what it will take.
The two sides help each other. A host's dripping tap or tired hallway gets fixed by the person who already has the keys, so it is one phone call, not three.
How a turnover works
From "thanks, we loved it" to the next guest's key in the door, this is what happens in between.
We use the spare key we hold, or the key safe, so you do not have to be there. No waiting about for a handover.
The inventory check comes first, on a tablet, against the list we built at your walk-through. Anything chipped, stained or missing gets a photo before it becomes an argument.
Beds made with fresh linen, towels folded, soap and loo roll topped up, the kitchen wiped down. The place should look like the listing photos again.
Smoke and CO alarms tested, a look for drips, loose fittings and anything the last guests broke. Small fixes can be done on the spot once you have said yes.
The checklist, notes and photos are sent to you, so you can see it is done without having to ask.
Flight delayed, key safe code lost, phone at two per cent. We hold the spare and we are on call, so it is one call to us instead of a bad review.
This is a typical turnover. Your own to-do list is built at the free walk-through.
What is checked
Three luggage tags, three jobs we take off your list.
Built once at your free walk-through, then used at every turnover.
We remind you; qualified engineers certify. Rules vary by letting type, so check yours with your council and insurer.

Questions
A turnover (also called a changeover) is everything that happens between one set of guests leaving and the next arriving: checking the property over, cleaning it, resetting the beds and restocking, so it is guest-ready on time.
We count the inventory against your list, clean, make the beds with fresh linen, restock the consumables, test the smoke and CO alarms, photograph anything broken or missing, and tick it all off and send you the notes and photos. Your exact to-do list is built at the free walk-through.
Yes. We hold spare keys for the properties we look after, so we can let ourselves in for a turnover or let a guest in if they are stuck outside. Exactly how keys are stored and logged is agreed at your walk-through.
Eastbourne and Bexhill: postcodes BN20 to BN24 and TN39 and TN40. If you are further along the coast, use the postcode checker and join the list, and we will tell you when we reach you.
Holiday-let changeovers are £20 per zone, where a zone is a room, or a hallway or stairs, so a property with six zones is £120 a changeover. Maintenance and handyman work is £34.99 an hour, £119.99 for a half day or £219.99 for a full day, with a £50 call-out, and a discount applies for retained clients, which we agree with you. After the free walk-through you get a written quote, so you know the amount before we start. See the rates above.
Yes. End of tenancy cleans, void repairs, reinstatement and a final check, quoted by the size of the property. Full refurbs and major works are quoted separately. Tell us about the place and we will come back with a price.
We hold the spare keys and will get to the property to let your guest in. We agree how lock-out cover works with you at the walk-through.
Holiday lets change hands at weekends, so we plan visits around your check-in and check-out days, which we set together at the walk-through.
We keep track of what is due (gas safety, electrical, PAT, smoke and CO alarms, fire safety) and remind you before it lapses. The certificates themselves come from qualified engineers, and we can let them in with a key we hold. Rules differ by property and letting type, so check yours with your council and insurer.
Yes. Flat-pack and fixings, leaks and tap repairs, doors and locks, fencing and gates, painting and decorating, plastering touch-ups, sealant and odd jobs, for anyone in Eastbourne and Bexhill.
