With Glotech\u2019s repair management system for landlords or lettings agents, your repair outgoings will cost less time and money.

We can also provide RAMS documentation where required.<\/p>\n<h2>Landlord repair responsibilities<\/h2>\n<p>But which items in the home are the responsibility of the landlord to repair? Generally speaking, if an appliance or item of furniture was in the inventory agreed within the tenancy agreement, the landlord or agency is responsible for repairing or replacing it. Whilst tenants are responsible for the everyday upkeep and care of the property, the landlord or agency is responsible for larger repairs that aren\u2019t caused by carelessness on behalf of the tenant. These could range between an electrical fault with the oven, or a broken lock on the washing machine door. Often, finding a reliable repair company that can cover all bases can prove difficult.<\/p>\n<h2>What is a repair management system?<\/h2>\n<p>A repair management system allows landlords and agencies to manage the status of outstanding repairs, book new jobs and view invoices from completed repairs \u2013 all in one place.
