We want tenants to live in homes that are safe and well looked after.

Please tell us if something in your home is broken, unsafe or not working properly.

Please report a repair if:

  • something is broken
  • something is leaking
  • your heating or hot water is not working
  • something is unsafe
  • you see damp or mould
  • something in a shared area is broken or unsafe

Some repairs need to be dealt with quickly. This might include:

  • a serious leak
  • no heating or hot water
  • unsafe electrics
  • a broken toilet if there is no other toilet
  • a problem that could make someone unsafe
  • serious damp, mould or an emergency safety problem

If you think something is urgent, please contact us straight away.

When you tell us about a repair, we will:

  • look at what needs to happen
  • arrange a contractor if needed
  • tell you when they are coming
  • keep you updated
  • check the work has been done
  • ask if you are happy with the repair

If the repair is urgent, we will try to help as quickly as possible.

Tenants also have responsibilities. This includes:

  • looking after your home
  • reporting repairs quickly
  • letting us or our contractors in to do repairs
  • telling us if a repair gets worse
  • telling us if you cannot keep an appointment

Some work is planned in advance. This might include:

  • decorating shared areas
  • replacing kitchens or bathrooms
  • work to roofs, windows or doors
  • safety improvements
  • other work to keep homes in good condition

We will tell tenants when planned work is due to happen.

Please contact us if:

  • a repair has not been done
  • the problem has come back
  • the repair has made things worse
  • you are unhappy with the repair
  • you have not heard from us

We will look into it and tell you what will happen next.

If you are still unhappy, you can make a complaint.

To report a repair, please contact Fairoak.
