Emergency repairs
Emergency housing repairs are urgent property fixes needed when a problem poses an immediate risk to a person's safety, health, or threatens major structural damage to a home.
Gas
If you have a gas leak
What to Do
Open doors and windows to let fresh air inside.
Turn off the gas supply at the meter if it is safe to do so. Put out all naked flames and do not smoke.
Leave the building and wait outside.
What Not to Do
Do not touch electrical switches or turn lights on or off. Do not use phones or anything else that could cause a spark inside the property.
Do not go back inside until emergency workers say it is safe. Then call National Gas Emergency Service immediately on 0800 111 999.
Water
If you have a major water leak, turn off your water supply at the stopcock, normally in your kitchen. People on a water meter should also have an external stopcock under a plate in the pavement outside. BTW: check where your stopcock(s) are so you are ready in case of an emergency. If you need help in locating them, contact the office.
For both gas and water emergencies: once the immediate danger is addressed as above, for repair contact our gas and water plumber, Tony Bradshaw 07970713987.
Sanitation failures
Overflowing sewage or if the only toilet will not flush.
