Residential Tenant Evictions
We know that being a landlord isn’t always easy. While we hope you never have to deal with a difficult tenant, the reality is that most landlords will eventually need to handle an eviction. When that time comes, we are here to make the process as smooth and stress-free as possible for you.
To get your property back, there is a specific legal path we must follow. Once you have your Possession Order, we handle the transfer to the High Court through our Principal Officer, Simon Williamson. This allows us to obtain a High Court Writ of Possession, which is the key to successfully evicting your tenant.
Whether you are dealing with rent arrears, property damage, or a tenant who simply refuses to leave, we can help. The eviction process can be complicated, and even a small mistake can cause major delays; our team of specialists ensures every detail is handled correctly so you can regain your peace of mind.
We treat every case with respect and professional discipline. Our experienced Enforcement Agents know how to resolve these situations effectively, taking the weight off your shoulders so you can move forward.
Fast, Effective Evictions
We help you obtain the necessary permission to move your Possession Order to the High Court. Once that is in place, we take immediate action to ensure your tenant is evicted as quickly as possible.
High Court Specialists
Our team of High Court Enforcement Agents is fully authorised to carry out High Court Writs of Possession. We handle the physical eviction with the legal authority required to secure your property.
Recovering Unpaid Rent
We can also help you get back the money you are owed. If you add the debt to your initial Court Order, we can enforce the recovery of those funds at the same time as the eviction.

What is the fastest way to evict a tenant in the UK?
Speed often depends on the type of Order you have. Once you get in touch, we can review your situation and show you how we use the High Court to speed up the recovery of your property.
How long does it take us to evict a tenant using High Court Enforcement?
While every case is unique, we act immediately once your case is moved to the High Court. Contact us today, and we can give you a better idea of the timeline based on your paperwork.
Can you evict a tenant without going to court?
For residential or mixed-use properties, the answer is no. You must have a Possession Order from the court before we can legally step in to help you.
How much does it cost to move your case to the High Court?
Costs can vary based on how your Order is written. We are happy to discuss the fees with you directly so you have a clear picture of the investment needed to get your property back.
What happens if a tenant refuses to leave after an eviction notice?
Once the legal notice period ends, our Enforcement Agents (Bailiffs) will attend the property to carry out the physical eviction. We ensure the tenant is removed safely and legally.
Can you attend the eviction with our Enforcement Agents?
No. For the safety of everyone involved, we do not allow landlords to be present during the eviction. We will contact you the moment the job is finished to give you an update.
What are the standard legal steps to evict a tenant?
Generally, you need to serve a formal notice and then get a Possession Order from the court. From there, we take over as Enforcement Agents to handle the final stage of regaining your property.
What is a Writ of Possession, and how do we get one for you?
A Writ of Possession is the legal document that gives us the power to clear the property. We can handle the paperwork to get this issued for you. Just get in touch to start the process.
Can a tenant delay the eviction?
A tenant can usually only stop an eviction if a court grants a “Stay of Execution” or a “Set Aside Order.” If this happens, we will keep you informed of any changes to the plan.
Can you evict a tenant for unpaid rent?
Yes, rent arrears are a common reason for eviction. If you aren’t sure if your tenant owes enough to start the process, speak with us and we can help clarify your options.
