Appointment Times

All emergency and appointed repair work is done by appointment at a time agreed with you. The appointment slots are:

• Monday to Friday between 8.00am and 6.00pm.
• Saturdays between 8.00am and 3.00pm – last appointment 2.00pm start.

We are currently trialling a new appointment service aiming to speed up the wait time for non-emergency repairs. While we trial the new service, the wait time for an appointment may be slightly longer than usual - we will let you know if this is the case when you book a repair.

Emergency Repairs

We complete emergency repairs by appointment. These are faults that create a potential danger to health, risk to safety, or serious damage to the property:

• Burst pipes, cylinders, tanks, no cold water, effluent flowing into property or garden, blocked W.C.
• Complete power failure, failure of communal lights, faults to bathroom, kitchen or staircase lighting, smoke alarm that will not be silenced.
• Burst on heating system that will cause water damage.
• No heating where no separate fire; no hot water where no immersion heater or electric shower between 1.10 to 31.3 – for vulnerable households.
• Broken lock or window lock if property insecure or lost keys – tenant may be recharged.
• Faulty lifts.

Appointed repairs

These are the type of faults that don’t create a health and safety risk, but do cause serious inconvenience, discomfort or nuisance, and are likely to cause building deterioration if not resolved. For example:

• Leaks controlled by tenant – running overflow, dripping tap, leaking wastepipe.
• Faulty WC flush, renewal of WC pan, noisy pipes.
• Faulty entry phone, loose banister of handrail, rotten stair treads, faulty light switch/sockets.
