DO NOT RENT WITH LEXADON If I could give a negative star rating I would. Lexadon is an absolute joke of a professional company, charging extortionate prices yet the employees can’t seem to understand the basic concepts of building management. They will try and steal your money at every opportunity and will happily let you pay rent to live in damp, squalid conditions. And if they send builders round you can guarantee a completely separate part of your flat will be broken by the time the builders are gone (eg come to fix a window and break the toilet off the wall), and your flat will be a filthy mess. Do yourselves a favour and rent elsewhere.

Sewage Issues Sewage Issues Currently their building at 208 Long Lane has a waste down pipe disconnected from the building. It is pouring out foul drainage all down the side of the building and onto neighbouring car park. They have been notified and not willing to take immediate action. As a neighbour to one of their building I can safely say the maintenance of the building is poor at best. Their attitude to fixing serious issues is clearly the same. I would think twice before renting one of their properties.

Stay away from Lexadon Lexadon have been the worst letting agent that I have ever encountered after my 9 years residency in London. We had one broken and constantly open window in our kitchen. All the windows in the living room were falling apart (literally glass falling off to the street/ inside the house). We reported the issues several times and they kept sending us an almost automatic response saying 'we are trying to get a quote from a contractor'. Two years later, nothing was done about it. Nevertheless, they proposed a 25% increase in rent, which was disproportionate to market rates and definitely to the state of the flat. Email communication from them is mostly rude and infantilising - they seem to imagine themselves as lecturing naughty children rather than trying to help paying adult customers.

30% rent increase in 1 year — more than 15x London average So Lexadon have told me they are planning to jack up the rent by OVER 30 PER CENT in December (less than the legal six months minimum for yearly contract tenants). I’ve lived here for 9 months. The average private rental increase rate in London this year was around 2 per cent. That said, the elevator has worked three times. And the building is falling apart. You get the picture.

DO NOT RENT - BIKE STOLEN FROM INSIDE PROPERTY DUE TO REFUSAL TO FIX FRONT DOOR After multiple requests to fix the front doors to our porch and flats which have been broken for a couple of months, Lexadon has failed their duty to do so. My flatmate and I have notified Lexadon and they should have repaired the door urgently in accordance with their duty as a landlord. My road-bike has been stolen as a consequence of the open doors with a saw through a D lock that was easily accessible to any passer by due to the broken door. This should have been treated as a matter of urgency and was ignored and the Door is STILL UNLOCKED. There has been limited communication after calls and emails and they have not yet checked the CCTV. This poor level of service and lack of care for the tenants possessions and safety has led me to write this review.
