GBDo not rent - Lexadon do not respond to maintenance… Lexadon do not respond to maintenance issues in a timely manner. We have had a broken door for +6 months, despite flagging that this is a safety issue. The maintenance team occasionally come, sometimes without warning, but are rarely equipped or aware of what issues they are resolving. We have raised some maintenance issues (broken blinds) for now +6 months.

GBShambolic organisation Spent over 6 months trying to get a balcony door fixed to no avail - it took an email copying the MD (found on LinkedIn) for anything to happen and even then the door wasn't fixed properly - just a sliding bolt fitted across the top as the doors are "bespoke" so presumably Lexadon have no intention of buying a new one? Absolute shambles. No record of maintenance visits to the property so no proper follow up after visits, literally NINE visits to the property to look at the balcony door (let alone other issues). Formal letter received for 33p of rent unpaid... no internal communication, agreed to freeze our rent due to issues with the balcony door then tried to charge us ~£50 extra per month on renewal. Finally... holding onto our deposit for well over 10 days stipulated by the DPS despite us giving 2 months notice so plenty of advance warning we'd want our money back? Cowboys.

GBStay 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.

GBDO 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.

GBRude staff, poor repairs - terrible company all round Rude, dismissive staff who rarely respond to emails in a timely manner or address the issues you raise. Frequently increase rent but extortionate amounts without justification. Repairs are shoddy and poorly done, flats are single glazed with minimal insulation. The worst
