More Information
What is an emergency?
Examples of emergencies are:
- no electricity
- you are locked out, or your locks are not secure (we will charge you if you lock yourself out)
- serious leaks and structural damage
- fires
Sometimes we may only be able to carry out a temporary repair. The work will then be finished off during normal working hours.
