When you report an emergency repair we will advise you of when you can expect a response, and whether or not you are likely to be charged for the work.

You should make sure that a responsible person is present when the emergency service responds.

Emergency repairs are restricted to making your property safe or carrying out a temporary repair. If further work is needed, we will contact you to make arrangements for a follow-on appointment.
