Awful customer service from start to finish. We were given a dirty flat with live wires hanging out of the wall. When we raised this serious safety issue, we were unbelievably told to cut them ourselves. The flat smelled dirty and was advertised as “furnished,” which turned out to mean one two-seater sofa and nothing else. We had no hot water for the first three weeks, and every time we contacted them about it, they seemed irritated rather than concerned. For the final couple of months, we were forced to live with a leak coming through the ceiling. We had to replace buckets of water every single day, with no clear explanation of where the water was coming from or proper action taken. Overall, a completely unacceptable experience. Poor standards, unsafe conditions, and dismissive management. I would absolutely not recommend this place to anyone.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your personal thoughts of our services here at Dawsons, however we are concerned this review does not reflect the standards of service or safety we uphold at Dawsons Lettings or of the relationship we built with you during your time in tenancy. All properties are required to meet strict safety and compliance checks, and any maintenance or safety issues reported to us are always logged and addressed through approved contractors. Our records show that maintenance concerns raised during tenancies are responded to and followed up appropriately, and we take matters such as electrical issues, hot water supply and water ingress extremely seriously. In relation to the matters raised we would like to clarify: 'live wires' noted were HDMI and Scart leads where a previous tenant had their TV on the wall, we believe you requested to fill the hole yourselves and your landlord agreed. In relation to the leak from ceiling - this was a block management issue which took time to investigate out of our control. The issue was resolved following your vacation. The property was professionally cleaned prior to your move in, upon your complaint the cleaner re attended promptly. The property was let as seen on viewing by yourselves. The limited hot water issue was dealt with within 11 days of being reported with ongoing repair work during this time. We would welcome the opportunity to discuss the specific issues you have mentioned in detail directly with you should you wish, please contact us directly at sa1rent@dawsonsproperty.co.uk. Kind regards, The Dawsons Marina Lettings Team

When you leave the rental property cleaner than when you moved in and they still withhold over £100 of your deposit for moderate cleaning. Scam!

Didn’t have a good experience buying or selling with Dawson’s, wouldn’t recommend to anyone. Friends have had similar experiences, disappointing.

By far the WORST estate agents ever known! Not one member of staff have any sort of customer service, avoid 53 PENTREMALWED ROAD at all costs! They don’t fix the problem they just paint over the damp. My daughters £1000 pram had to be thrown because damp issues weren’t solved. Along with numerous of other items. After we terminated our contract, handing the keys back on the 1st they think they can justify charging us 8 days until new tenants move in so the landlord can paint over the issues ????????? because that’s all will be done. 1.5 years we put up with it, you shouldn’t of received rent at all living in this, never mind trying to get money out of us when we’ve handed the keys back! INSPECTIONS every 3 months are a load of s***. Don’t know why you waste the time giving these people job titles as they just think they are doing you a favour (as they’ve stated numerous of times) “not like it’s there job or anything” AVOID AVOID AVOID

We have been reporting issues in our property for nealy 2 years now, at every 3 month inspection and several times in between. The main issue concerning us is a leaking conservatory, every single time it rains, it floods! Each time we are told 'a report has been logged', 'someone will be sent out soon', nothing has EVER been done and these issues have now escalate to the point where 1 room of our house is coated in black mould and the walls are falling off (photos attached). This is just one of the many problems we've reported and Dawsons has done NOTHING. Our 3 young children live in this house with us, it is unsafe for them and we will be reporting this to environmental health and our local councillor. Absolutely abismal, if this had be rectified when we first reported NEARLY 2 YEARS AGO, we wouldn't be in this situation. Stay well away from Dawsons.
