FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about our HMO property maintenance, landlord support, and compliance services in Felixstowe & Suffolk and surrounding areas.

What are the main HMO safety regulations in Suffolk I need to know?

+

Landlords must provide an annual Gas Safe certificate, carry out an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) at least every five years, and maintain working smoke and carbon monoxide alarms. You also need to ensure the property is not overcrowded and that communal areas are kept clean and in good repair. We can help you audit your property against these local council standards.

Do you offer emergency property repairs for HMO tenants?

+

Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency support for critical issues like burst pipes, total power failure, or security breaches like broken windows. Having a reliable contact for your tenants helps prevent further damage to the property and fulfils your duty of care as a landlord.

Can you help with end-of-tenancy repairs to get the house ready for new tenants?

+

Absolutely. We specialise in rapid turnarounds. This includes "refresh" painting, fixing minor carpentry issues, professional deep cleaning, and checking all appliances and utilities are safe for the next occupants. We aim to minimise the time your rooms sit empty.

How do I know if my fire doors are compliant?

+

Fire doors in HMOs must be self-closing, have intumescent strips, and meet specific fire-resistance ratings (usually FD30). Our team can inspect your existing doors and provide repairs or replacements to ensure they meet the latest fire safety legislation.

Why Make FLEX PROPERTY SERVICES Your Maintenance Partner?

How often should I have my HMO inspected for repairs?

+

While the law requires specific annual checks for gas and five-yearly checks for electrics, we recommend a general maintenance walkthrough every six months. This allows us to spot things like damp, loose carpet tiles, or dripping taps before they cause significant damage to the building structure.

Do you handle end-of-tenancy repairs for individual rooms?

+

Yes. We specialise in quick turnarounds between tenants. We can handle painting, decorating, professional cleaning, and any minor repairs needed to get the room back on the market as quickly as possible. This minimises your void periods and keeps your rental income steady.

What happens if there is an emergency in the middle of the night?

+

We provide a 24/7 emergency response for critical issues like major leaks, total power failure, or broken windows. We understand that HMO emergencies can affect multiple people at once, so we prioritise these calls to make the building safe and prevent further property damage.

Can you help with council HMO compliance checklists?

+

We certainly can. If the council has provided a list of required improvements to grant or renew your HMO licence, we can work through that list systematically. This often includes installing fire-rated doors, improving ventilation, or upgrading electrical systems to meet current safety standards.
