Choose the leak guide for water location and timing, the hot-water guide for plumbing-versus-electrical scope, or the recurring-trip guide for safe observations before an electrical assessment. The handover checklist is for tenants and managers coordinating the same repair. These guides explain decisions and preparation, not remote diagnoses or DIY instructions for regulated work.
- How to report a plumbing leak
- Is the hot-water problem plumbing or electrical?
- A safety switch that keeps tripping
- A clear tenant and property-manager handover
Can a guide identify the faulty part at my property?
No. Similar symptoms can have different causes. Use the guide to describe what you have observed safely, then arrange the appropriate assessment before deciding on a repair or replacement.
Find the guide for your property problem
These guides help owners, occupants and property managers describe plumbing and electrical problems before arranging an assessment. They explain what information is useful, how inspection and repairs are scoped, and which decisions belong in the written quote. A symptom or photograph provides context; it does not establish the failed part.
Leaks, hot water and recurring trips
Use the leak guide to describe water spread, timing and access. The hot-water guide distinguishes a problem at one outlet from loss of hot water across a property. The safety-switch guide explains why a recurring trip needs assessment before a replacement is proposed. For booking and service scope, continue to water leak detection, hot-water repairs or safety switch and RCD repairs.
For tenants and property managers
The maintenance handover guide separates the occupant report from access permission and work approval. Our managed-property maintenance service explains the service pathway, while the work-order and access notes help prepare a clear instruction.
You can contact Ellis with the location and observed issue before collecting a complete set of details. Photos are optional and should only be taken safely. For available service regions, use the Perth suburb directory. To arrange an assessment, request a repair with the current condition and access contact.
