Tenant Maintenance Request

All general repairs and maintenance requests must be made in writing to our office. There is a form below which you can submit or you can also request a copy to be emailed to you, or of course collect one from our office.

Please ensure you give a detailed description of the issue, including make and model (if an appliance, air conditioning unit etc.) and also attach a photo if possible.

Advise us of your instructions regarding arranging access so that we can process your request quickly and our tradespeople can schedule your job in. The quickest way to have repairs attended to is by allowing access for the tradespeople, you can do so by giving authority to use the agency’s keys to enable the required Tradesperson to access the property.

Please note that if you make a time to meet at the property with a tradesperson and you don’t show up, you will be given the invoice for the call out fee – Remember your manners.

Emergency Repairs

Emergency maintenance must be reported immediately. All emergencies must be phoned through to the office as soon as possible and then formalised online or in writing.  If you have endeavoured to contact our office unsuccessfully for the required approval then it is requested that in such an emergency you refer to the front page of your lease and contact the nominated repairers listed.
