TCM Building & Maintenance

Emergency Property
Maintenance & Repairs

For an urgent building or property repair, first deal with any immediate danger through the appropriate public emergency authority or competent registered specialist. Building assessment, temporary repair or reinstatement may be considered after the site is safe to approach; TCM geographic coverage, availability and first-visit scope remain case-specific.

Immediate danger: for an active fire or immediate threat to life, use the public emergency services. Suspected gas, live-electrical or serious structural hazards need the appropriate emergency or registered specialist route before ordinary building work is arranged.
No universal attendance time approved
Assessment before repair scope
Public/specialist safety route first
Specialist support where required

Examples of Urgent Property Repair Situations

Burst Pipes & Flooding

Building-damage assessment and reinstatement planning after the water source and immediate safety risks have been dealt with by the appropriate provider.

Fire Damage

Property assessment and reinstatement planning after the fire service or other appropriate authority has made the situation safe to enter.

Storm Damage

Assessment of roof, envelope or other building damage and discussion of temporary or permanent repair scope where safe access is available.

Structural Failures

Visible structural damage requires an appropriate competent structural route. TCM can undertake agreed building repair or reinstatement work after immediate safety and design requirements are established.

Break-In Repairs

Assessment of building damage and project-specific boarding, door, window or other repair scope, subject to safe access and current availability.

Gas Leak Aftermath

Building checks and reinstatement planning only after the appropriate emergency gas route or Gas Safe registered engineer has made the situation safe.

Urgent Repair Enquiry Process

01

Make the Situation Safe

Use the appropriate public emergency authority or registered specialist first where there is immediate danger or reserved safety-critical work.

02

Contact TCM

For non-immediate building repair enquiries, contact TCM on 07305 121634 or use the contact page for telephone and email options. Coverage and availability remain enquiry-specific.

03

Assessment

If a visit is arranged, the initial scope may be condition assessment, a temporary building measure, or identifying the specialist/design information needed before repair.

04

Plan the Repair

Where further building work is appropriate, agree the repair or reinstatement scope, responsibilities, exclusions, programme assumptions and quotation terms.

Urgent Property Repair Enquiries

Once immediate safety risks have been handled, for non-immediate building repair enquiries contact TCM on 07305 121634. This is a general contact route, not a universal emergency telephone line, 24/7 service or attendance target; coverage and availability remain case-specific.
