House was in very poor repair. Flooring and carpets so old they were thin, damaged and unsanitary. On leaving carpet cleaners were horrified and said the flooring was a health hazard. Struggled to keep the carpet going up the cleaner. Only received £70 deposit back. Told garden was a mess on leaving. The garden was a sodden mess due to rain not being able to escape. Reseeded lawn before leaving several times. Weather is not our fault. Kitchen lino was so thin when moved in it was down to the adhesive almost. Rented out now with same carpets, same lino and same worn out and damaged laminate flooring. We had a skip outside and the company left stuff behind. Instead of informing us and asking to collect they charged us for removal of items. We had the house professionally cleaned before leaving and past tenants stuff found under all kitchen units. Bad bad plumbing that we got blamed for when had a leakage even though we had informed them and had repaired. Landlord said we had done something when in fact the pipes were too small. And overstretched. Shoddy work on house previously repaired before renting by us. Wear and tear of already worn flooring was not down to us damaging. A tile in the bathroom broke because work previously done was tiled over tiles. And the new tiles overlapped by inches and had been filled with adhesive to cover the gap. Accident waiting to happen. Got charged because of there shoddy work. Prime choice pandered to bully of a landlord. I am disabled and tried to get some simple adaptions(temporary may I add). Council funded but his demands could not be met by the council. Can only assume landlord see's deposits as his right to keep and prime choice didn't even quibble with him.
Comment on agent fees
Meh.
