National recognition for our tenant guidance - featured in The Sun

CPS Homes were featured in The Sun last week, thanks to the expert advice we give tenants on protecting their deposit and keeping properties in great condition.

The article, titled “TikTok viral DIY trend is now ‘no1 culprit for losing your rental deposit’ as experts warn it’ll wreck your kitchen”, highlights how “sticky-back plastic” – often promoted online as a renter-friendly decorating solution – is leaving landlords with damaged surfaces and costly repairs.

In the piece, our team at CPS Homes were quoted on safe removal techniques tenants can use to minimise damage, such as using low heat to soften adhesive and carefully peeling rather than pulling. It’s just one example of the practical guidance we provide to help renters look after the property they call home.

Why this matters for landlords

We believe that educating tenants isn’t just good for them – it’s essential for landlords. By sharing clear, accessible tips throughout the tenancy, we:

  • Reduce the likelihood of damage and costly repairs.
  • Help tenants secure as much of their deposit as possible.
  • Leave landlords’ properties looking better for the next let.

We believe this proactive support sets us apart from other agents. Our aim is always to make things easier for both sides – and our national recognition shows it’s working.

See the difference...
