Dedicated repair platforms such as Fixflo are built for letting agents. They add contractor dispatch, works orders and landlord cost approvals, and they charge for it. Fixflo's lettings pricing starts at £0.40 per unit a month plus a £50 monthly software fee. If you dispatch jobs to a contractor network across hundreds of units, that is the right tool.
If you manage your own portfolio, August gives you the parts that do the most work: guided troubleshooting, photo reports, a dated record and messaging on every repair. They sit alongside your compliance checklist, rent and documents, and they are included on every plan, including Free.
For landlords and portfolio managers who run their own lets. Repairs alongside rent, compliance and Making Tax Digital. Included on every plan.
August does not assign jobs to contractors or collect quotes. You brief your own trades, and the record keeps track. Weighing a full agency system instead? See how August compares with Arthur.
