My Dad has a rental flat which sadly he's no longer able to manage as he has Alzheimers. I have power of attorney and have had to take on more and more of the management of Dad's affairs. It's rented to students through letting agents (fortunately) but now needs some fairly extensive redecoration. The letting agents made a quote for £6000 basically for cleaning ,redecoration and putting in a new bath and shower. It's a small flat and I think this might be excessive so I am meeting a builder (found through Which? local) to get his perspective on what needs to be done and ask for a quote. I have absolutely no experience of builders! I want to make the right impression ie I'm not a naive little lady, will pay a fair price but expect good quality workmanship. Any advice on how to handle this would be most welcome.
