My boyfriend and I are in the process of renting a property through Shaun Mellor. From the moment we enquired right up until now (referencing stage) we have been really blown away by how helpful Mark and Simon have been. They have both been really quick with their responses and have helped us in every way we have needed. They’ve been fantastic. Mark took his time getting to understand our situation and booking our viewing and Simon spent a great deal of time showing us around and answering our many many questions! Thank you both so much!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Shaun Mellor Property Services to find tenants for my bungalow, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless and efficient. Mark in lettings was particularly fantastic, maintaining continuous communication and providing updates every step of the way. His professionalism and friendliness made the experience even better.

A brilliant, personalised service from start to finish when selling our home. Shaun and Caris were a great support throughout, always available or getting back to us very quickly whenever we had anything to discuss. Would have no hesitation in recommending to anyone looking to sell their home. Mark and Debs, Tingley
