Maintenance and urgent repairs

Tenants must report all repairs and maintenance, including urgent repairs, without delay to us by calling us or by completing our online maintenance form below. Should you not report repairs you may be held liable for any subsequent damage and/or increased expense due to the failure of timely notification.

What is an urgent repair?

The specified Urgent Repairs as set out in the Residential Tenancies Act 2010, clause 62 are as follows:

  • A burst water system
  • An appliance, fitting or fixture that uses water or is used to supply water that is broken or not functioning properly, so that a substantial amount of water is being wasted
  • A blocked or broken lavatory system
  • A serious roof leak
  • A gas leak
  • A dangerous electrical fault
  • Flooding or serious flood damage
  • Serious storm or fire damage
  • A failure or breakdown of gas, electricity or water supply to the premises
  • A failure or breakdown of any essential service on the residential premises for hot water, cooking, heating, cooling or laundering
  • Any fault or damage that causes the residential premises to be unsafe or insecure

IMPORTANT
If one of the above urgent issues arise after office hours, please refer to our preferred urgent tradesperson list below. If you do have trouble contacting our preferred tradesperson please contact an alternative qualified tradesperson for assistance.
