TENANTS

Emergency Repairs

The tenant should contact the property manager/owner or the nominated repairer (listed on the tenancy agreement) about the problem. It is a good idea to put the request in writing as evidence of notification. If they cannot be contacted, the tenant can arrange for a qualified person to carry out emergency repairs to a maximum value of 2 weeks rent.
​

Emergency repairs are: a burst water service or a serious water, service leak, a blocked or broken toilet, a serious roof leak, a gas leak, a dangerous electrical fault, flooding or serious flood damage, serious storm, fire or impact damage, a failure or breakdown of the gas, electricity or water supply, a failure or breakdown of an essential service or appliance on the property for hot water, cooking or heating, a fault or damage that makes the property unsafe or insecure, a fault or damage likely to injure a person, damage property or unduly inconvenience a tenant, a serious fault in a staircase, lift or other common area of the property that unduly inconveniences a tenant in gaining access to, or using, the property. 
All other repairs are considered routine repairs.

​Paying for emergency repair

If the tenant pays the repairer they need to give all receipts to the property manager/owner who must pay them back within 7 days.
Alternatively, the tenant may ask the property manager/owner to pay the repairer directly.
