URGENT REPAIRS
1) ESSENTIAL SERVICES are listed in the Residential Tenancies Regulations 1989 and include repairs to:
- a burst water service,
- gas leaks,
- broken hot water system,
- sewerage leaks or
- dangerous electrical faults.
2) OTHER URGENT REPAIRS are those that are not an essential service, but might cause damage to the premises, injure a person or cause undue hardship or inconvenience to the tenant/s, e.g.:
- Broken refrigerator or washing machine where these appliances are included in the tenancy.
Should an emergency repair be required outside of our office hours, we recommend contacting the below contractors. It is always important to know if a repair is an emergency or a general repair. Getting this wrong may be costly to the tenant if the repair is conducted afterhours!
