Customer Service

Pros:

  • "I recently moved with Andrews and Emily guided me through the whole process, in a very professional manner. Highly recommended and will be using Andrews again in the future."
  • "Sadly, I ended up finding another property through another agent. However, we felt the need to leave a review, as we were blown away by the customer service and attention to detail that we've received from Jack in the Bishopston branch of Andrews."
  • "Joseph Fairman is an amazing property manager, he has sorted every issue with our property with ease."
  • "Steven Pearce in the Bishopston branch is a credit to the company."

  • "I have been working alongside Rebekah Weston at Andrews Bishopston Branch for several years now and I can’t recommend her highly enough."
  • "A big thank you to Nick & Judith and the rest of the team who were incredibly friendly and helpful!"

Cons:

  • "Andrews have left me and my housemates without access to a functioning toilet for over 24 hours 3 times in the course of my tenancy."
  • "Outside of this, they've left us without a washing machine for a month, they take months to perform basic repairs we aren't liable for or able to do ourselves."
  • "All I can say is they acted spiteful and vindictive to me, I felt abused by their unnecessary unsympathetic treatment of me."
  • "They charge you for giving reference even and would keep your deposit for no reason."
  • "It's not ok to miss a payment and you shall be chased as per tenancy agreement... leave a tenant without water supply... not accountable if the issue is not resolved."
  • "The most unprofessional and disorganised branch, one particular employee is extremely rude and patronising."
  • "A complete lack of empathy for any renters, it's disgusting."

Property Management

Pros:

  • "Really responsive and pro-active letting agents. You'll be assigned an individual that manages your property specifically and they're more than happy to help with anything to do with the place you're renting."
  • "We at Protest Electrical Solutions Ltd have had the pleasure of working with Jess and the team on numerous different jobs as a contractor over the past year and couldn't be happier."

Cons:

  • "Andrews tried to withhold £250 from our deposit for reasons that we considered spurious."
  • "Never consider using the Freehold management service. it aspires to clueless!"
  • "I do not advise prospective landlords trust them with their tenants or money. I do not advise prospective renters trust them with their wellbeing or safety."
  • "We had a rotting problem with one of the doors... it still took 2 months to address the problem."
  • "Do not use, you will regret it."
  • "Not sure what services they're taking a cut of the rent for each month, it's certainly not tenant management or property maintenance."

  • "The Andrews team were amazing during the purchase of my first flat - I couldn't have done it without Emma's help."
