The Bordon landlords brief

Bordon briefs in the landlords sector usually come from letting agent, portfolio landlord or HMO managers working across Headley, Greatham, Liphook. Large new-build pipeline at Prince Philip Barracks regeneration, mixed older garrison stock, plus rural cottages out toward Headley. That mix shapes the substrate — plaster ages, joinery styles and access windows all differ between a buy-to-let terrace on a busy trading street and one tucked into a side road. Former garrison town in active regeneration — new town centre, employment hub and 3,350-home programme are reshaping the local market. It is the reason a landlord & lettings decorating quote from Bordon rarely looks the same as one from the next postcode across.

What the programme usually includes

The specific scope depends on the survey, but a typical landlord & lettings decorating programme in Bordon covers:

• Communal hall and stairs on HMO properties — familiar setup on GU35 projects.
• Kitchen and bathroom refresh without full replacement around Bordon trading hours.
• Damp-patch stain block and cover coats across Bordon and the surrounding villages.
• Full flat / house repaint between tenancies matched to large new-build pipeline at prince philip barracks regeneration.
• Ceiling, wall and woodwork touch-in package scheduled around Greatham traffic where relevant.
