A dated record of every repair, from first report to fixed

Every report is timestamped when it is raised, and every status change after it is recorded against the property and tenancy. Photos, messages and documents sit with it. When a deposit is disputed or a council asks what you did and when, the answer is already written down. That record is how you show you met your repairing duty under section 11 within a reasonable time, and it is the first thing you will want if a tenant brings a housing disrepair claim. Awaab's Law will add fixed response times for private landlords once the government commences it, and a dated log is what those timescales will be judged against.

Timestamp on every report and status change

Photos, messages and documents kept with the repair

Repair reporting built in, not bolted on

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.

Fixflo

For letting agents and housing providers. Contractor dispatch and works orders. Priced per unit plus a monthly software fee.

August

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.

Got questions?

We've got answers

Answers to the most common questions from Landlords and Tenants using August.

Frequently asked questions about landlord maintenance

What's property maintenance software for landlords?

Property maintenance software helps landlords and tenants manage repair requests efficiently. Instead of phone calls, texts, or emails scattered across devices, everything lives in one organised system. Tenants log issues with photos, landlords track progress in real time, and nothing gets lost. August includes maintenance as a core feature, built in alongside rent tracking, compliance, and documents.

How do tenants report maintenance in August?

Tenants open the August app, tap Maintenance, pick a category like Plumbing or Electrical, then choose the specific issue. They add a title, details, and optionally photos and a room location. Urgent issues like a burning smell get flagged as emergencies automatically. The whole thing takes under a minute. They can report anytime, 2am, Sunday morning, doesn't matter.

Can I track maintenance requests for properties?

Yes. Your August dashboard shows every maintenance request across all your properties in one place. It works whether you manage 2 tenancies or 20. Growing portfolio? August scales with you, and you can see patterns across properties, like which one eats up your maintenance budget.

Is August free for UK landlords?

August is free for up to 2 tenancies, that includes maintenance, rent tracking, compliance, documents, and everything else. No credit card required to start. Manage more than 2 properties? We have affordable paid plans for landlords scaling up. If you never go above 2 tenancies, you'll never pay a penny.

How do landlords handle maintenance requests?

Traditionally, tenants ring or text their landlord, who then chases contractors, negotiates schedules, and texts back with updates. It's fragmented and chaotic. Modern landlords use property management tools with built-in maintenance features. Tenants report issues in an app, landlords track everything in a dashboard, and landlord and tenant messaging keeps every conversation in one place. It's faster, creates a written record, and reduces disputes.

Does August work for HMO maintenance?

Absolutely. HMO landlords love August because it handles maintenance from multiple tenants in one property seamlessly. All requests land in your dashboard sorted by tenant, so you know who reported what. Multi-unit properties get the same real-time tracking and status updates as single-property landlords. It's built to scale.

What happens after a maintenance request is resolved?

You mark the request as resolved in August. Your tenant gets an automatic notification telling them the work is done. You see your report history at a glance at any time.

How does August compare to other maintenance apps?

August is property management built for UK landlords. Maintenance is one of several features, alongside rent tracking, compliance, and documents, all in one place. It's simple, free for small portfolios, and designed to keep maintenance organised and communication clear. We don't overcomplicate it with contractor job assignment or quote tracking. We focus on the core problem: reporting issues fast and tracking them reliably.

Yes. Your August dashboard shows every maintenance request across all your properties in one place. It works whether you manage 2 tenancies or 20. Growing portfolio? August scales with you, and you can see patterns across properties, like which one eats up your maintenance budget.

Is August free for UK landlords?

August is free for up to 2 tenancies, that includes maintenance, rent tracking, compliance, documents, and everything else. No credit card required to start. Manage more than 2 properties? We have affordable paid plans for landlords scaling up. If you never go above 2 tenancies, you'll never pay a penny.

How do landlords handle maintenance requests?

Traditionally, tenants ring or text their landlord, who then chases contractors, negotiates schedules, and texts back with updates. It's fragmented and chaotic. Modern landlords use property management tools with built-in maintenance features. Tenants report issues in an app, landlords track everything in a dashboard, and landlord and tenant messaging keeps every conversation in one place. It's faster, creates a written record, and reduces disputes.

Does August work for HMO maintenance?

Absolutely. HMO landlords love August because it handles maintenance from multiple tenants in one property seamlessly. All requests land in your dashboard sorted by tenant, so you know who reported what. Multi-unit properties get the same real-time tracking and status updates as single-property landlords. It's built to scale.

What happens after a maintenance request is resolved?

You mark the request as resolved in August. Your tenant gets an automatic notification telling them the work is done. You see your report history at a glance at any time.

How does August compare to other maintenance apps?

August is property management built for UK landlords. Maintenance is one of several features, alongside rent tracking, compliance, and documents, all in one place. It's simple, free for small portfolios, and designed to keep maintenance organised and communication clear. We don't overcomplicate it with contractor job assignment or quote tracking. We focus on the core problem: reporting issues fast and tracking them reliably.
