Terrible service: over three weeks to resolve basic problems and a complete lack of communication. Emails take a couple of days to receive a response, and phone calls are ended as quickly as possible, with the promise to email a response as soon as possible - something that then doesn't happen. Very dissatisfied.
I was with Martin & Co before, and I was always advised before workmen attended, work was effected quickly and the staff were friendly - none of which has been true of my experience with TuckerGardner.

What agent could do to change your mind?
Kept me informed of the status of repairs, consistently advised when tradesmen would attend, arranged for repairs to be done more quickly.Attached Filesnbsp;

Worst experience with a letting agent in 20 years of being a landlady.
Don't trust them to perform a check-out service if you need a comprehensive service. Avoid at all costs....

I can confirm this comment. The ‘professional’ was surprised that we were waiting at the property to accompany him. He had already just not turned up the first day he was due. He told us he likes to turn up unannounced. We soon discovered why. The check out service was shockingly bad. A few photos were clicked off. Damage was missed which we had to point out to him. We had to argue for damage to be included. He did not really appear to be interested. I would advise anyone to use ...

Fees kind of average I guess but they will have a set of fees when you move in and then you may get a different list of fees when moving out. Check the paperwork!

No fees information available
Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
Complaints Procedure
No procedure available.
As we have sought to explain, all repair/maintenance work has to be co-ordinated around access to the property, contractor availability and landlord authorisation, all of which can add seemingly unnecessary delays. Please be assured we are working hard to resolve any outstanding issues and my colleague will contact you direct to let you know when each contractor will attend.
