Living room was redecorated before I moved in. Decorators had left the curtain rails on the floor. Immersion heater not working. Contacted Woodcock on 1st July and asked them to rectify. In September Two of the rings on the hob failed and one of the other two started to play up. Contacted Woodcock and asked them to fix. Made several calls since, various promises made but as of 12/12/2013 nothing has happened at all. These guys are only interested in rent collection, not maintenance.
Avoid them.
Avoid them.
What agent could do to change your mind?

Good morning
Thank you for taking the time to add a review of our business to this website I know that time is a commodity and should be used wisely. Unfortunately you have not put the address of the property and have not made any other contact with us to report the issues with the property which I would have thought would be the first thing you would do to save your time in writing this review.
Woodcock Holmes manage over 400 properties and a number of properties in the area you have sp ...

Thank you for your All Agents Review although I am disappointed with the 1 star that you have given us. All deposits that we take from tenants are secured with a deposit protection company this is not only to safeguard the landlord but also to ensure that your deposit can not be taken or used by an agent or landlord without your authority or agreement. Woodcock Holmes will always itemise any charges made against your deposit to both the landlord and you as the tenant therefore ensuring that the ...

Thank you for your review and I'm sorry that you felt you needed to review us with such a low score. Woodcock Holmes are aware of your case and have worked with you to try and get your deposit back in full this included allowing you back in the property after your tenancy expired so that you could avoid being charged by our contractors. You were advised by my colleague Natasha that your final inspection would not be reviewed until after her holiday as she was away for two weeks she will return o ...
