Emergency council housing repairs
Emergency repairs should not be reported by using the online reporting form.
Emergency repairs are generally those that pose a risk to the health and safety of those people within the property, or risk to the property itself.
Examples of emergency repairs could be:
- gas leaks
- insecure dwellings
- water leaks
- roof leaks
- faulty electrics
- heating breakdowns
- blocked drains
- dangerous structures
For repairs of an emergency nature you should inform the council urgently, either by telephoning 01502 523593 (Mon- Fri normal hours) or 0800 440 2516 (weekends and out of hours), or in person at one of the following council offices:
