Comprehensive, professional property inventory management services

Check-In & Inventory report provides a full itinerary of the furnishings and fittings within a property, including detailed descriptions and photos of each item.

This is typically taken immediately prior to a tenancy, to ensure there is an accurate and independent record of the property contents and condition. Meeting tenants and handing over keys is included in this service at no additional charge.

​

Each report contains 25 high resolution photos per room, downloadable as a separate zip file. Our reports undergo more than 40 automatic checks before being signed off by our internal review team.

At the end of a tenancy, a thorough inspection should be carried out, using the original Check-In Report to compare the condition of the property at the start of the tenancy, with each room in the rental property examined thoroughly.

​

Notes should be taken and compiled into a report at the point of the tenants’ vacating – this is known as a Check Out report.

This report will be used to determine whether the tenant will receive a full refund on the deposit paid at the start of their tenancy, or whether any deductions will be made to cover any damage to the property.

​

Using an independent inventory company like Arnold Inventories can make all the difference during a deposit dispute as our 3rd party reports provide impartial evidence to support or refute any disputed claims.

A mid-term inspection, otherwise known as a landlord inspection or interim inspection, is where a report is carried out on a rental property to check on its condition.

​

Carrying out this report benefits both the landlord and tenants, as it ensures that both parties are keeping up with maintenance and ensuring the property is looked after.

​

Landlord inspections and mid-term inventory reports are important and shouldn’t be overlooked, but they can be a minefield for landlords who don’t have in-depth knowledge of legalities and compliance. 

​

In these circumstances, having a trusted partner is the lifeline you need. Finding reliable property inspection services means you have someone who is experienced, qualified and competent in thoroughly inspecting and identifying issues and potential risks within a property.

We assess your compliance with current fire and carbon monoxide alarm system regulations, and can install alarm systems where needed in your property.

​

Carbon monoxide and smoke detectors will be tested as standard during our visit and we will identify any issues with your current alarm systems as part of your inspection. We can supply and fit additional alarms whilst on site saving you unnecessary expensive call outs.

​

The team at Arnold Inventories have vast experience in both fire and carbon monoxide alarm regulations and our installation services can save time and money. We pride ourselves on our attention to detail and the excellent service we provide to our customers, ensuring you are compliant with current regulations, and that your tenants are safe.

Valid for 10 years, we will inspect your property and issue an official 'Energy Performance Certificate'. Our experienced team is fully qualified and holds all relevant qualifications to carry out the inspection and issue the certificate. ​

​

Your property will be rated from 'A' to 'G', with 'A' being the most energy efficient and 'G' being the least. The minimum acceptable rating is 'E'.

​

The survey takes approximately an hour, and includes producing a floor plan, taking measurements, and capturing details and pictures of heating, lighting and layout.

We issue both domestic and commercial EPC certificates

Legionnaires disease is a highly serious condition which can be fatal, which is why it is important that everyone responsible plays their part in mitigating the risk of exposure throughout the UK.

The most effective way to do this is by hiring an expert to carry out a legionnaires risk assessment of your property’s water systems.

​

While inspectors are unlikely to inspect domestic premises, if a tenant contracts Legionnaires’ disease from a water system in your property, you may be liable to prosecution and you would have to provide evidence to a court that you took appropriate measures to reduce risk.
