Landlords switching to durable materials for property renovation

The UK rental market is evolving rapidly, and the continual need to refurbish residential and commercial properties between tenants can be a serious drain on a landlord’s resources.

Whereas in the past, refurbishments of rental properties have leaned towards the cheap and cheerful “quick fix”, there is an increasing awareness that quick fixes are neither cheap nor cheerful. Low-cost floor tiles which will soon look tired and tatty are not the solution. Today’s tenants expect much more.

This is why many landlords are looking to durable, long-term solutions. Porcelain and ceramic tiles, which can now be produced in a virtually limitless range of styles, colours and textures, and which can resist even the toughest wear and tear, are becoming a firm choice for landlords who are committed to “smart renovations” involving higher initial outlay coupled with long-term savings.

According to Letting Agent Today, an online news supplier for letting agents, there are clear indications that more landlords are now choosing wear-resistant, durable flooring materials. The focus is not only on material durability: aesthetic longevity is a factor too. The design, texture and colour need to look fresh and new in 10 years’ time. Fashions are notoriously hard to predict, but landlord’s want something that will not look hopelessly anachronistic after a few years.
