A local, independent set of eyes on every property.
Grimsby Property Inventories is run as an independent, one-person operation — which is the point. No branch targets, no relationship to protect with either side, just an accurate record of what a property looked like on the day.
Hi, I'm Samm
I started Grimsby Property Inventories after seeing how often local landlords and small agents were either skipping a proper inventory altogether, or relying on a handful of phone photos that fell apart the moment a deposit dispute actually happened.
Every report I produce follows the same room-by-room method, uses the same condition and cleanliness scale throughout, and is timestamped and photographed to a standard built around what TDS, mydeposits and the DPS actually expect to see as evidence — not just what looks thorough.
I cover Grimsby, Cleethorpes, Immingham and the surrounding villages directly, so bookings get a fast turnaround rather than sitting in a queue behind properties on the other side of the region.

How every report gets built
Room-by-room, the same way every time
Every property is walked through in the same order, against the same checklist, so reports from different properties are genuinely comparable.
Condition and cleanliness rated separately
The two most commonly disputed categories are tracked as distinct, defined ratings rather than folded into one vague note.
Photographed and timestamped
Wide shots plus close-ups of anything notable, meter readings included, all dated at the point of capture.
Sent for sign-off within 24 hours
Tenant and landlord/agent get a clear window to review and agree, or flag anything they disagree with, before the record is locked in.
Work with someone who has nothing to gain either way
That's the whole value of an independent clerk — the report says what happened, not what's convenient.
