Why agents can rely on it

An engineer’s eye, on every line.

Every Emilecon inventory is carried out by a civil engineer with two decades in construction. A settlement crack is called a settlement crack, a failed seal is called a failed seal, and each is photographed where it sits. That is the kind of detail a deposit adjudicator looks for, and the kind a vague report tends to leave out.

One tenancy, four fixed points

The record is only as good as the day it was made.

Day one

Full inventory and schedule of condition. Meters read, keys counted, alarms tested, every line photographed and timestamped before the tenant moves a box.

Mid tenancy

Optional mid-term inspection. A short condition report that catches damp, leaks and damage while they are still cheap to put right.

Last day

Check-out compared against the check-in report line by line, with fair wear and tear separated from damage and each difference evidenced.

Deposit

A schedule of dilapidations your team can hand straight to the deposit scheme, without rewriting it or hunting for photographs.

How it works

Booked today. Reported the same day.

01  Book

By the booking form, email or telephone, Monday to Saturday. The address, the date and the type of visit are enough.

02  Confirmed

The appointment and a fixed rate are confirmed promptly. Last minute bookings are taken whenever the diary allows.

03  Inspection

The property is inspected room by room, with the tenant present or keys collected from your office. Every line is photographed and timestamped.

04  Report

The report is written on site and arrives by email within 3 hours of the visit, ready to issue to the tenant for comment.

Sample reports

Judge the standard before booking.

Check-in

Inventory and check-in report

Condition and cleanliness graded separately, meters, keys and alarms recorded, and matters for the agent raised on the day.

Check-out

Check-out report

Read against the check-in line by line, with each change assessed as fair wear and tear, damage, cleaning or a landlord repair.

Specimen reports: the property, people and readings are illustrative, not taken from a client report.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

How quickly can an inventory be booked?

Often the next day. Next day bookings carry no extra charge, and same day bookings are £25 extra whenever the diary allows. Book online or telephone.

What is the difference between inventory only and inventory and check-in?

Inventory only is the record of condition and contents, made and delivered. Inventory and check-in adds the appointment with the tenant: the walk through, the keys and the meter readings agreed on the day.

What does a report include?

Every room described and photographed, condition and cleanliness graded separately, meters read, keys counted and smoke and carbon monoxide alarms tested, in a signed PDF ready for the tenant.

Does Emilecon work with letting agents and private landlords?

Both, on the same published price list. Agents are invoiced on delivery with seven days to pay; landlords are invoiced when the booking is confirmed.

How soon is the report delivered?

It is written on site and delivered within 3 hours of the visit.

Are visits available on Sundays or bank holidays?

Not on Sundays. Bank holiday visits are by request only and quoted individually.
