How our repairs work
Our staff and contractors will always show ID and will be polite and courteous. If you’re not sure who they are, you can contact our customer hub for help. You’ll need to move any furniture and lift and relay any carpet or other flooring you’ve fitted yourself if needed.
The repair person will leave the area as close to how they found it as possible. But please be aware we can’t guarantee replacement parts like tiles, will exactly match existing ones.
Repair timeframes
We classify repairs as either emergency or routine. With emergency issues, we aim to repair or make them safe within four hours. With routine issues such as minor leaks and blockages or replacing a broken toilet, we aim to repair them within 30 days.
Repair appointments
When you contact us, we’ll make an appointment for one of our surveyors or repair staff to visit you and assess what needs doing (unless the repair is to a communal area). Sometimes we ask the contractor to contact you directly.
If you don’t let us, or anyone employed by us, into your home after agreeing a time and date, we may have to take legal action to enter your home. You will be charged for this.
Appointment slots
A contractor will come to your property. If they can’t get in, they’ll leave a card telling you to contact them to rebook. If the repair person doesn’t show up at the arranged time, please contact them directly for more information and to rebook the repair.

If your repair is an emergency, please call 0300 456 2099.
Emergency issues include things like:
- A dangerous electrical fault.
- A serious water leak.
- A complete loss of lighting, electricity or water.
Non-emergency and routine repairs include things like:
- Fixing internal door handles.
- Replacing taps.
- Easing and adjusting a window or door.
- Reglazing a window after an emergency board up.
We aim to deal with all non-emergency and routine repairs within seven days. But you may have to wait longer if we need to order specialist parts or materials.
If something stops working or develops a fault, we’ll usually fix it for free. We’ll only charge you for repairs if you’ve intentionally or wilfully caused the damage.
Maintenance work
Maintenance is when we do regular, major work on a property. It includes things like redecorating or substantial repairs, replacing a kitchen or bathroom, electrical rewiring or upgrading a heating system.
To make sure we deliver good value for money, we usually carry out our maintenance work on groups of properties, such as a whole estate, at the same time. We use surveys to identify how much work an estate needs, so we can make sure we have enough money in our budget to do the work.
We’ll always consult you and give you the option to express your views while we’re considering what work’s needed. And we’ll send you a formal letter before we officially start any work.
If you have any concerns, you can contact us at any time to discuss work that hasn’t yet started or even after it’s been completed. All work will be checked by our technical inspectors.
