For repairs or maintenance, start with the lease, building rules and the landlord/management contact. Responsibility and approved repair methods can depend on the cause, the property and the contract.

What to check

  • ✓Describe the problem clearly and keep photos/messages where useful. Ask before arranging your own repair if the lease or management rules require approval.

Important

BRIDGE can help communicate and understand the contract, but it should not decide liability for damage without the actual facts and agreement.
