The real problem

The repair gets done. The evidence gets lost.

You find a contractor, agree a price over WhatsApp, they do the job, you pay. Six months later a deposit dispute lands — and you can't prove what was agreed, who approved it, or what photos were taken.

Most landlords don't lose deposit disputes because they're wrong. They lose because they can't prove they're right.

Photos were on my phone. Invoice was in email. The contractor approval was somewhere up in a WhatsApp thread. When the dispute landed I had 14 days to find it all — and I couldn't.
Common scenario · self-managing landlords in deposit disputes
£1,000–£2,000 at stake per tenancy
The repair was done. The invoice was paid. But there was no clear record of what was agreed, what the scope was, or who approved the final amount. The tenant disputed the deduction and won.
Common scenario · end-of-tenancy deposit deduction disputes
Many landlords lose not because they are wrong, but because their evidence is scattered, late or poorly organised. The deposit belongs to the tenant unless the landlord can prove otherwise.

A fixed repair. And a record that protects you.

Every Bearmend job creates a Repair Decision Card — a structured record of everything that happened, approved by you, documented automatically.

  • Agreed price and scope before work starts
  • Your approval on record — who confirmed, when, what amount
  • Before and after photos with upload timestamps
  • Contractor invoice attached to the job record
  • Full audit trail — nothing editable after the fact
  • Evidence Pack PDF ready for TDS, DPS or HMRC

Why now

Three laws that make repair documentation non-negotiable.

Apr 2026
Making Tax Digital
Repair expenses must be digitally recorded. Every Bearmend job creates an accountant-ready expense record automatically.
May 2026
Renters' Rights Act
Section 21 is gone. Landlords must demonstrate grounds for any deduction — a documented repair record is now your defence.
2025→
Awaab's Law
Mandatory response timelines for repairs. A timestamped record shows you acted — and when.
Now
Bearmend
Every repair we coordinate creates an organised, timestamped record — so you're covered when any of these apply.
