Rental Turnovers

Turnover Repairs & Maintenance

Most units aren't held up by one big problem. They're held up by twenty small ones — a blown-out drywall corner, a missing blind, a lockset that sticks, a wobbling toilet, three burnt-out fixtures. Handled one call at a time, that's two weeks. Handled as a single punch list, it's a couple of days.

Our approach

Process note: assess before the cleaners, not after

We walk the unit while it still shows what the tenant left, because that's when damage is documentable — once it's cleaned, a stained countertop or a gouged floor is much harder to attribute. We build the punch list from that walk, price it, and get approval before anything is repaired. Any item that turns out bigger than it looked — soft subfloor behind a toilet, a wall repair that reveals a leak — stops and comes back to you as a change order with a photo before we continue.

1Walk the unit at move-out and photograph every item on the list
2Deliver an itemized punch list split into routine make-ready and tenant damage
3On approval, complete drywall and structural repairs first so paint can follow
4Swap fixtures, hardware, blinds and detectors; rekey locks
5Final walk against the list, then hand off to paint, flooring or cleaning as scheduled

Why STRYDE

Why it matters in a turnover

Speed: one list, one crew, one visit

The punch list is where turnovers quietly lose a week, because each item individually is too small to schedule. Running the whole list in one mobilization is the single biggest time saving available in a make-ready.

Durability: fix the cause, not the symptom

A door-knob hole gets a backer and a door stop, not just mud. A wobbling toilet gets a new flange bolt set and wax ring, not a shim. Repairs done properly don't reappear on the next turnover's list.

Consistency: documentation you can act on

Every item is photographed and priced, sorted into routine wear versus tenant damage. That report is what makes a deposit deduction defensible instead of a conversation about someone's memory of move-in.

Questions

FAQs about this service

How do you separate ordinary wear from tenant-caused damage?

We document rather than adjudicate. Every item on the punch list gets a photo, a description and a cost, and we split the report into two sections — routine make-ready versus damage beyond ordinary wear. Scuffed baseboard and a few anchor holes land in the first; a kicked-in hollow-core door or a burned countertop lands in the second. You make the deposit call; we make sure you have the evidence to support it.

Do small repairs get their own trip charge?

Not when they're bundled into a turnover. Punch-list items are priced as part of the unit scope, which is the main reason single-vendor turnovers beat calling a handyman for each item — six separate small jobs means six mobilizations. For standalone mid-tenancy repair calls outside a turnover, a minimum visit charge does apply.

Dependable turnaround. One point of contact.
