How to raise a repair
There are many different ways you can tell us if something needs fixing. The best way is online where you don’t need to pick up a phone.
We're making some exciting improvements to our services. To support these changes, there will be some temporary adjustments over the next month. Our online account will be offline for maintenance from 5pm Thursday 12 June to 8am Monday 16 June.

For non emergency repairs, we complete repairs between Monday and Friday between 8am and 4.30pm (3.30pm on a Friday). We do not offer weekend or evening appointments.
We offer 4 time slots, which are:
- 8am- 12.30pm
- 10am- 2pm
- 1-4.30pm (3.30pm on a Friday)
- 8am-4.30pm (3.30pm on a Friday). This slot is used for longer and more complex repairs
For some repairs, we may use a contractor, and they may have different working hours/time slots.
- When you tell us about a repair, we’ll ask you all the details that we need and offer you an appointment that’s best for both you and us. We’ll then give the job to 1 of our 300 tradespeople
- The repairs we can’t do are done by carefully selected specialist contractors. We keep a close eye on contractors to make sure they deliver the same high standards that we expect from our tradespeople
When we come to your home:
- Our staff and contractors know how important it is to show some ID when they come to your home. And if you have a question during the repair, please do ask - we’re happy to help
- For some repairs, we may need to inspect the area and assess the repair first before we can start work, which will mean that we need to raise a second visit to complete the work needed. This may be because we need to order parts, need to complete further checks or need more time to ensure we can complete the repair
- Please clear the area around the repair before we arrive. This includes emptying any cupboards involved and making sure the area's clean
- To keep children and pets safe, please keep them well away from the area we're working in. This makes it easier for us to work quickly and safely
