We look after apartments and houses in Batumi while the owner is away: scheduled inspections, servicing of the engineering, payment of utilities, preparation for your arrival and emergency call-outs. The service is for those who do not let their property out but want to find it in the state they left it.
What is included
Servicing of the engineering: water, drainage, electrics, water heater, filters; air conditioner servicing with cleaning before the season; a plumber and electrician on call; winterisation for the off season and reopening before you arrive; a concierge service: deliveries, bills, meeting guests; an emergency call-out in case of a leak or a power failure.
What we take into account in Batumi
The main risk in a city apartment is the neighbours below. A burst flexible hose or a leaking water heater in an empty flat means repairs to two properties and a dispute with the management company. So at every scheduled visit we check the hoses, the taps, the water heater and any traces of leaks, and we advise owners to fit leak sensors with automatic shut-off.
The second local theme is humidity. A flat closed for several months at over seventy percent humidity meets its owner with a smell and a bloom in the corners by the external walls. We air the property on a schedule and check the extraction, rather than dealing with the consequences in spring.
How it works
After the first inspection we compile a property record: where the boards and stopcocks are, what equipment is installed, what is serviced and how often. Then visits on schedule, utility payments from your deposit or against your bills, a photo report after each visit and a summary once a month. By the time you arrive the flat is aired, switched on and cleaned.
Price
A retainer depending on the property and the scope of work. We give a range by phone and the exact figure after the inspection. Work beyond the retainer is agreed separately and confirmed with receipts.
