Maintenance & call-outs

Planned maintenance. 24/7 emergency make-good.

Large residential buildings don't fail all at once — they erode. Sealants give up, falls move, balcony tiles lift, common-area finishes wear. A serious maintenance program catches all of that before it becomes a capital works claim, and reports it on the Live Board the strata committee actually reads.

Emergency make-good

Burst pipes, façade spalls, roof failures, slip hazards, security make-good. We attend, secure the site, document for the insurer, and program the permanent repair.

24/7 line
Who we attend

Strata, shopping centres, government buildings.

Same delivery spine, tuned to the building, the occupants and the paperwork the asset owner needs.

Strata & residential

Burst risers, balcony ingress, façade spalls, lift-lobby damage. We make-good first, document for the OC and insurer, then scope the permanent repair.

  • After-hours attendance, residents in place
  • Live Board entry within the hour for the strata committee
  • Insurer-ready photo log and scope

Shopping centres & retail

Roof leaks over trading floors, slip hazards, shopfront damage, ceiling collapses. Work runs around trading hours with a centre-management-approved access plan.

  • Out-of-hours make-good, trading uninterrupted
  • Centre management & tenant comms managed
  • CM3-compliant SWMS on every attendance

Government & education

Schools, council assets and government buildings. Vetted operatives, full inductions, audit-grade documentation on every job — emergency or planned.

  • Working Children Check on every operative
  • BuyNSW / CM3 prequalified, panel-ready
  • Daily diary, near-miss register, asset register update
Our approach
  • Annual program scoped with the building manager and engineer
  • Reactive defects logged in the Live Board within hours, tied to a stage and assignee
  • Cyclical works programmed in advance, signed off per zone
  • Quarterly building manager report — what was done, what's next, what to budget
Common mistakes we avoid
  • Treating maintenance as call-outs instead of a program — the same defects keep returning
  • No documentation per job — owners can't tell what was done, when, or by whom
  • Mixing trades and warranties so no single party is accountable for the building fabric

Process

Onboard, operate, report, renew.

01
Onboard

Building condition survey, asset register, program agreed with OC and BM.

02
Operate

Reactive defects via Live Board; cyclical works to annual program.

03
Report

Quarterly report to building manager and strata committee.

04
Renew

Capital works flagged early — scoped and budgeted before they're urgent.

Why maintenance call-outs don't fix buildings

Most strata buildings run on reactive call-outs: a leak appears, a tradie attends, a sealant goes on, the job closes. Six months later the same leak appears in the unit below. Without a building-wide view of what's failing and why, every fix is local and every defect comes back.

A program, not a phone list

Real maintenance starts with a condition survey and an asset register. From that, an annual program of cyclical works — waterproofing renewals, façade washdowns, sealant replacement, common-area touch-ups — is agreed with the building manager and engineer. Reactive defects sit alongside the program, not instead of it.

The Live Board as the reporting layer

Every reactive defect is logged within hours, colour-coded by stage, tied to an assignee and a document trail. The strata committee, the building manager and the engineer share one read-only view. Strata meetings stop being status updates and start being decisions.

Honest capital works planning

Maintenance done properly is also a capital works early-warning system. When a sealant program shows a system reaching end of life, the strata committee finds out a year early — not in an emergency quote. We flag, scope and budget capital items before they become a special levy.
