Maintenance & Emergencies

We ask that you always try to contact your Property Manager first, however if it is after hours and/or you cannot contact the Property Manager, you are permitted to contact an emergency contractor directly.

It is important that you know that should the issue not be deemed an emergency as defined in your lease agreement, you may be responsible for the account. An emergency repair is something that is likely to cause injury or which makes the property unsafe or insecure. (For example burst water service, serious leak, serious electrical fault).

Emergency repairs may be arranged up to the value of 2 weeks rent as per your lease agreement.

You can only contact the owner’s tradesperson as nominated in your lease.
