GoogleI can say with 100% certainty that this is the worst estate agent ive ever used. They dont get maintenance done and treat there tenants like animals.
In August, I raised a maintenance issue with them that there was large gaps in the windows which meant that heat was not being retained in the bedroom and would not get any warmer in the room, this would be classed as urgent work but no, I was made to suffer with this for 5 months as even when I move out now its still not fixed properly. I had to wait til November for a cheap fix on the windows which doesn't even do what its meant too. To even get this temporary fix meant that I had to constantly chase them up multiple times and as it hadn't been sorted after months, I lodged a complaint to which the response was, "Dont worry im on this ... Bloody tenant". This shows a complete lack of disrespect and compassion from one of the directors Kerry Watson, as well as the owners also seeing this message and not even apologising on her behalf either.
Landlord also entered property illegally without giving any notice to myself which was giving to them - lack of communication there.
In November the property above mine was being renovated which meant that it was just so much noise all day everyday, no heads up from the estate agent about this who also manages that property, showing a severe lack of compassion.
Which leads into the next issue, of leaking from the flat above which was reported in November as there ended up being a case of damp to my property which is all over the living room, reported to the estate agent, still not fixed to this day 2 months later, chased up multiple times however still not fixed and damp is also on the interior walls but they have still failed to fix it. Damp was also noted on the inventory when I first moved into the property so they were well aware of it and still failed to fix it even after having it confirmed by more than one person.
Structural damage is also another issue that was raised due to such large cracks in the flat itself, the walls were cracking everywhere and nothing done about that.
The landlord is a very well off person called Luke Fryer and just won't pay for anything, window contractors and other handyman suggested getting complete new windows for the property as they were that old but he refused to and just used a 50p fix on tape, all about money with him and not caring about his tenants.
They also expect the tenants to clean the property to even better than what it was when they moved in. When I moved in there was stains all over the floor, such a big one in the lounge, thought that would of been cleaned before moving in when they said that it was professionally cleaned but no, there was multiple stains. Cooker didnt work, replaced with the cheapest one ever which was so bad and didnt work effectively.
In regards to returning the deposit, I still haven't received this back or any communication back about it after being told I should hear back from them last Tuesday which was still a long time after moving out. To then hear back today from them today on 2/2 from Jess saying it’s out of their hands even though they have assumed responsibility for the property and told me it should of been done last Tuesday with no further communication which shows how much of a joke this company is and doesn’t care about there tenants.
Overall such a bad experience with them, very poor service and no sense of compassion, they dont care if the property is kept in a good condition and if your rents paid on time, complete disrespect for their customers which is shocking from a chain of branches. Would never go back there again, they have also had to be reported to the council many times throughout the time I was living there as well due to the way they were failing to complete maintenance work.

GoogleMy wife and I had an excellent experience with White & Guard during our property purchase. The team was incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, and we felt fully supported from start to finish.
A special mention goes to Suzanne Ashman and John Neville, who were truly outstanding. Their communication, responsiveness, and guidance were exceptional, and they consistently went above and beyond to ensure everything progressed smoothly. Their professionalism and attentiveness made what could have been a stressful experience very manageable.
We are genuinely grateful for their support, and we would not hesitate to highly recommend White & Guard to anyone looking to purchase a property.
