Common Emergency Situations We Handle
Our experienced team has responded to thousands of strata emergencies across Victoria, giving us the expertise to handle any urgent situation quickly and professionally.
Water Damage and Plumbing Emergencies
Burst pipes, flooding, and water ingress can cause extensive damage within hours. Our team responds immediately to isolate water sources, extract standing water, and begin emergency drying processes to prevent structural damage and mould growth.
Storm and Weather Damage
Victoria’s unpredictable weather can cause significant building damage. We provide immediate response for roof damage, broken windows, structural concerns, and debris removal, securing your building to protect residents and prevent further weather exposure.
Electrical Emergencies
Power failures, electrical hazards, and safety concerns require immediate professional attention. Our qualified electricians respond quickly to restore essential services and eliminate safety risks.
Security and Access Issues
Lock-outs, security breaches, damaged entry systems, and elevator emergencies can compromise building security and resident safety. We coordinate with regular maintenance and repair suppliers for contracted services (such as lifts, access systems, etc).
Structural Concerns
Cracks, settling, or visible structural damage requires immediate professional assessment. Our licensed builders can quickly evaluate concerns and implement emergency stabilisation measures.
