Property Maintenance & Trade Services
Property maintenance and repair covers the general upkeep and small repair jobs a property needs between tenancies, before a sale, or to keep it in good order. iTrade handles the general work and is clear about when a certified trade is required.
Who it is for: Homeowners, landlords, agents and executors needing general repairs and upkeep.
What it covers: General repairs and making-good jobs around a property, often alongside a clearance or clean.
When a survey is needed: A photo or a quick look at the jobs helps, because a written list keeps the quote accurate.
Properties gather a list of small jobs: a sticking door, a failed seal, a loose handle, filling and making-good after a clearance. Handling them together is quicker than booking separate visits.
iTrade takes on general maintenance and is straight about the point where a job needs a certified specialist, such as Gas Safe registered or notifiable electrical work.
