NRLA and Checkatrade announce new partnership
The NRLA and home improvement platform Checkatrade have announced a new partnership, linking landlords with trusted tradespeople.
The tie-up between the two organisations means NRLA members can benefit from significant time and cost savings when they sign up for Landlord Services by Checkatrade, a new dedicated team that seeks out best matched tradespeople for repair, maintenance and upgrades for landlords’ rental homes.
NRLA members can register for a preferential first year offer from Landlord Services by Checkatrade. There is no subscription fee for the initial three months after signing up. For the remaining nine months, NRLA members who have registered with Checkatrade pay a preferential rate of £2.99 + VAT per property per month – a saving of 75% on the normal subscription.
Landlord Services by Checkatrade acts as a pivotal link between landlords and tradespeople, coordinating quotes and service appointments on behalf of landlords. The arrangement will also save time and help give landlords confidence that they are getting access to the best and most trusted tradespeople working across the private rented sector.
NRLA Chief Executive Ben Beadle said: “Checkatrade is a business which believes in helping good landlords to deliver high quality accommodation to their tenants.
“This partnership means NRLA members can get the best possible quote for maintenance, repairs and upgrades in a quick, efficient manner.
“We welcome the chance to work with Checkatrade and are excited about the benefits this new arrangement provides to our membership.”
Jambu Palaniappan, Chief Executive of Checkatrade, said: “Checkatrade is committed to making home improvements easy and high-quality.
“So we’re delighted to join forces with the NRLA to offer their members low-cost access to our new service dedicated to landlords.
“The initiative will also generate more jobs for the hard-working tradespeople on our platform. We can’t wait to get started.”
