A Cracked Window Found Hours Before Check-In at a Torquay Airbnb

The owner of an Airbnb property in Torquay found a cracked window with guests due to arrive in a matter of hours.

It was a Sunday.

The deadline was the booking, not the glass

A cracked window in an empty house can usually wait until Monday. This one could not, because the cost of waiting was not the glass, it was a cancelled booking, a refund and a review.

For a short-stay host, that turns a minor repair into an urgent one, and it is why weekend availability actually matters in this line of work rather than being a line on a website.

Same day, Sunday

We attended on a Sunday callout, replaced the broken window and had the property secure and presentable before the next check-in.

The booking proceeded without disruption.

Short-stay accommodation

We work with homeowners, property managers and Airbnb hosts across Torquay and the Surf Coast seven days a week, including weekends and public holidays, because that is when changeovers happen.

The job in short

  • Site: Airbnb property, Torquay
  • Damage: Cracked window discovered hours before check-in
