Flats & apartments
Explain whether incoming cartons already occupy the flat’s bedroom floor.
HAYES · SHELVING AND STORAGE
A bedroom handover with missing fittings.
A missing drawer handle and a damaged wardrobe hinge are not interchangeable handover defects. For a Hayes rental, record which items can be assessed for repair and which need an owner’s replacement decision.

DIFFERENT ROOMS, DIFFERENT BRIEFS
Explain whether incoming cartons already occupy the flat’s bedroom floor.
A replacement mirror may uncover older paint edges that need separate attention.
Distinguish tenant belongings from the landlord’s wardrobe and bedside furniture.
Label bedrooms clearly when several similar handles need attention.
If the room doubles as a workspace, identify equipment that cannot move.
The keyholder needs the repair list, not simply an appointment time.
Homeowner? Count missing handles and retain an intact example for dimensions.
Landlord or manager? Distinguish tenant belongings from the landlord’s wardrobe and bedside furniture.
Tenant? Share one approved repair list with the owner, agent and person opening the bedroom.
BUILD A REALISTIC LIST
Prioritise replacement bedside unit or missing drawer handle, then add optional fittings. This checklist is not a booking or quotation.
| Situation | A practical next step |
|---|---|
| Replacement bedside unit | An intact handle can be compared safely without dismantling unstable furniture. |
| Several related tasks | Ask for a reviewed visit when missing hardware and damaged panels coexist. |
| Wardrobe shelf carpentry | Mirror fixings require assessment even when the previous mirror used the same wall. |
| Specialist systems | Handover deadlines do not make regulated or specialist work a general repair. |
HAYES IN PRACTICE

A bedroom handover with missing fittings.
Example brief: replacement bedside unit, with missing drawer handle recorded separately.
Make one photographed list for the person opening the property and the person approving expenditure. Include furniture ownership and whether incoming belongings will occupy the bedroom before work takes place.
Cleaning and decorative refreshes remain different requests.

CLEAR BEFORE YOU BOOK
The handover quote follows named repairs and products. £30 does not price a complete rental handover.
A small replacement product needs confirmation; this is not a bedroom-handover package.
Confirm permission before a tenant’s screen creates wall fixing holes.

Deciding between repair and replacement can change labour and materials. Record the authorised choice and any separately requested old-furniture removal or wall making good.

THE DETAILS OF YOUR VISIT
Their observations help, but the agreed scope should come from the authorised contact. Distinguish reported faults from approved replacements.
Photograph the whole wardrobe and accessible hinge details. Measurements may help identify options, but replacement compatibility still needs checking.
State whether a matching set matters or only the missing item needs attention. Those choices create different material requirements.
Describe the actual access arrangement when enquiring. Key availability does not establish permission to enter every room or approve extra work.
Name it separately from landlord fixtures. The owner of each item and authority to repair it should be clear before the visit.
A smaller replacement may expose them. Request local making good explicitly if the finished wall needs attention.
Show the usable bedroom floor and confirm access with the occupant. The plan should reflect belongings already present.
No. Painting and cleaning are separate from the defined furniture and hardware repairs, even if all are wanted before occupation.
Keep a note of missing parts, revised decisions and deferred jobs against the original numbered list so the next contact knows what remains.
