Emergency Maintenance

Repairs & Maintenance

If an urgent repair is needed, please call us immediately on 1800 371 172. This number operates during business hours and after hours.

Emergency repairs are generally situations that could cause injury, present a health or safety risk, or cause serious damage to the property. These may include:

  • Burst water pipe or serious plumbing leak

  • Blocked or broken toilet (if no second toilet is available) — please try plunging the toilet first, as minor blockages can often be resolved this way. If the blockage remains after a genuine attempt, contact us.

  • Gas leak or strong gas smell

  • Dangerous electrical fault (e.g. exposed wires or sparking power points)

  • Serious roof leak or ceiling collapse

  • Flooding or major storm damage

  • Fire or damage caused by a vehicle

  • Failure or breakdown of essential services (e.g. electricity, gas, or water supply)

  • Hot water service failure over a weekend or public holiday

  • Any fault that leaves the home unsafe or unsecure (e.g. broken locks, smashed glass)

  • Any issue likely to cause injury, major inconvenience, or further property damage if not addressed quickly

After Hours
If an emergency occurs outside business hours, please still call 1800 371 172. The call will be redirected to ensure your concern is responded to as soon as possible.

Please only call for genuine emergencies. If a tradesperson attends and the issue is not considered urgent, all costs will be passed on to you.

All maintenance requests must be reported in writing so we can respond quickly and pass on the right information to the property owner and tradesperson.

If you would like to use our Tenant Portal (app or online), access can be provided on request - just let us know. Otherwise, you’re welcome to submit your maintenance request using the form at the bottom of this page or by emailing us at:
yourhomesda@email.propertyme.com

Please Include:

  • A description of the issue

  • Photos or videos, where possible or practicable

  • Any relevant product details (e.g. brand, model, or serial number)

Once we receive your request, you can expect us to respond by the next business day. We will notify the property owner and arrange for an appropriate tradesperson who may contact you directly. If you’re unavailable to be home during the repair, we can issue a key to the tradesperson to access the property.

We will get back to you by the next business day. Once reviewed, we’ll let the owner know and arrange a suitable tradesperson to attend. If you're not available to be home, we can provide a key to the tradesperson for access.

Important:
If you arrange to meet a tradesperson and are not home at the agreed time, they may charge a call-out fee — and this cost will be passed on to you.
Most maintenance is carried out between 8:00am and 6:00pm, unless otherwise agreed.
