Emergency Repairs
Emergencies don't follow business hours. A burst pipe at midnight. No power on a Sunday morning. The eave torn off in last night's storm. Briks runs an after-hours roster of vetted tradies with pre-agreed rates so the dispatch happens immediately, the make-safe happens first, and the full repair is quoted before anyone goes further.
Included scope
- Burst pipes and major water damage
- Hot water system failure
- Power failure and switchboard fault
- Broken locks and access failure
- Storm damage and roof leaks
- Gas leaks (coordinated with authorities)
- Make-safe and isolation

Anything that's causing immediate damage, danger, or makes the property unliveable — burst pipes, no power, no hot water in winter, broken access, gas leaks, storm damage. Cosmetic stuff is non-emergency.
