The emergency repairs service covers those problems where there is an immediate risk to personal safety, and these are shown below.

1. No central heating: We will only attend during winter months (31st October - 1st May). If you are a senior citizen or disabled person and the problem is reported before 8pm we will try to attend that evening. Otherwise a heating engineer will attend within 24 hours.

2. No mains water: This will be attended to within 24 hours.

3. No electrical power or lighting: If you have no electrical power or lighting we will attend within 24 hours. You should have some form of emergency lighting available as candles should not be used.

4. Water flooding: All tenants should report water flooding as an emergency and a contractor will attend as soon as possible.
