Tenants do not have to be present at the Check Out of the property, but we will make contact on the day if we have any questions or concerns.

If an inspection cannot proceed for any reason, we reserve the right to charge 50% of the fee if notice of at least 48 hours is not provided.

If notice of 24 hours or less is given, the full fee will be charged.

In cases of frequent bookings and cancellations, EJ Inventory Services reserves the right to request partial or full payment prior to revisiting the property.

We will test smoke and carbon monoxide alarms for power only, as part of the check in procedure, where accessible and also note meter readings.

Once the invoice has been paid in full, which typically occurs within 24-48 hours after the property visit has been conducted, our accounts team will email the report to the client in PDF format, the turnaround time may increase in busy periods and or bank holidays.

As part of our check-in process, we will endeavour to take all meter readings where possible. The landlord or agent will need to confirm the location and reference numbers of the meters when booking.

We apply a £25.00 surcharge for services on Saturdays, Sundays and requested Bank Holidays, which can be discussed during the booking process and will be subject to availability.
