When you report an emergency repair, we will need to ask you some screening questions to protect both you and our contractors before visits can be confirmed. Our Contractors will also ask you a series of questions before they enter your home.

Please think carefully before you use the out of hours service, as the service is for EMERGENCIES only.
If you call out the emergency service to a non-emergency repair you may be re-charged the cost for this.

How quickly will we carry out the repair?

Emergency Within 4 hours If not attended to would seriously affect the stucture, security or constitute a danger to health. For example: Fire/flood/break-in/gas escapes

Quality of service

All repairs are carried out by approved contractors.  We continuously monitor our contractors to ensure they provide a prompt, high quality, and value for money service.  A Satisfaction Survey is issued to all tenants via text message upon completion of a repair.  We would really appreciate it if you could take the time to complete the survey to help us ensure that our services continue to provide high levels of satisfaction. 

Everyone who completes a survey will be entered into our quarterly prize draw with a chance of winning a £30 shopping voucher.
