When a tenancy ends, the final inspection often turns up damage beyond normal wear and tear. Common examples are holes in walls, broken door handles, cracked tiles, and fixtures that have been pulled out. Shore Home Repairs fixes those specific damage items for rentals across North Shore Auckland. We get the property ready for the bond to be sorted and the next tenant to move in.
This is repair work, not ongoing upkeep. If you're after planned, between-tenancy maintenance and recurring repair lists, that's our rental property maintenance service. This page is for the reactive jobs — repairing damage that's already happened, usually against the clock before an end of tenancy inspection. If you'd like to understand what those inspections cover, our guide to end of tenancy inspections in Auckland walks through it.
We help both sides of a tenancy. Landlords and property managers use us to get a property repaired and re-let quickly. Tenants use us to fix damage before moving out, to help protect their bond. Either way, send us the list and photos. We will review the work and come back with a clear quote before anything starts. Where a job needs a licensed electrician, plumber, or builder, we'll tell you up front.

FAQ
Common questions about handyman work on the North Shore
- What counts as tenant damage versus fair wear and tear?
- Fair wear and tear is the gradual deterioration that comes from normal everyday use, which a landlord can't charge a tenant for. Tenant damage is harm beyond that — holes in walls, broken fixtures, cracked tiles. We carry out the repairs; whether a particular item is chargeable is a matter between the landlord, tenant, and Tenancy Services. For the official guidance, see Tenancy Services (tenancy.govt.nz).
- Can you fix tenant damage before the final inspection?
- Yes — that's the most common reason people call us. Getting damage repaired before the end of tenancy inspection helps tenants protect their bond and helps landlords get the property ready for the next tenant. Send us the list and photos and we'll quote before any work begins.
- Do you repair rental damage for both landlords and tenants?
- Yes. We help landlords and property managers getting a property ready to re-let, and tenants wanting to fix damage before they move out. We cover North Shore Auckland, including Browns Bay, Albany, Mairangi Bay, Milford and Takapuna.
