Building Maintenance FAQ

Everything you need to know about our building maintenance service in Melbourne. Can't find your answer? Call us directly.

What does a building inspection cover?
Our monthly inspections cover: common areas (lobbies, hallways, stairwells), mechanical systems (lifts, pumps, ventilation), fire safety equipment (extinguishers, hose reels, exit signs), structural elements (cracks, water damage, corrosion), external areas (car parks, gardens, fencing), and building services (lighting, intercom, access systems).
How do you handle emergency repairs?
We provide 24/7 emergency contact for our maintenance clients. For urgent issues like burst pipes, security breaches, or lift breakdowns, we coordinate immediate response, either from our own team or trusted specialist trades depending on the nature of the emergency.
Can you manage our annual maintenance budget?
Yes, we help committees plan and allocate maintenance budgets. Our annual maintenance plan identifies upcoming works, estimates costs, and prioritises spending. This helps avoid surprise levies and ensures critical maintenance isn't deferred.
Do you replace our strata manager?
No, we complement your strata manager. We handle the physical building maintenance while your strata manager handles administration, finances, and legal compliance. We work closely with strata managers and provide all reporting they need.
What size buildings do you service?
We service buildings from 10-unit boutique blocks to 200+ unit complexes. Our programs scale to match building size, complexity, and budget. Larger buildings typically benefit from more frequent inspections and on-site maintenance hours.
How do you handle compliance and essential services?
We track essential safety measures (fire systems, exit lighting, smoke alarms) and ensure testing and maintenance stays on schedule. We coordinate annual fire safety statements and can attend to defect notices from council or fire brigade inspections.
