Property Refurbishment Service
We have a network of trusted trade contacts who can carry out upgrading work within a property, from simple decoration and carpeting to larger projects requiring planning permission.

Agent Behaviour
The behaviour of one of the agents, David, was deemed unprofessional and xenophobic towards a prospective tenant, with subtle yet clear discriminatory remarks made during a viewing.
Communication Issues
Renting through Dove Davies Property Management was not a smooth experience for one reviewer, who faced significant communication issues throughout the process. Clear information about end-of-tenancy procedures was difficult to obtain, leading to frustration and stress.
Charges and Disputes
Two reviewers were unhappy with the charges they received from Dove Davies. One was charged for energy usage during a period when they were no longer living in the flat, while another was presented with exaggerated and untrue accusations for cleaning and damages upon leaving the property.
Maintenance and Customer Service
On a positive note, the maintenance team, led by Stuart, received praise for their exceptional work fitting a new shower enclosure and renovating a bathroom. The customer service team was also commended for their fast responses to calls and emails, resolving issues quickly and efficiently.
