Minor Repairs

Fixtures and fittings such as pipes, water taps, cisterns, hinges, tiles, and switches will naturally wear out over time and require repairs. Under the Lease Agreement, home owners are responsible for maintaining their flats' interior which includes the fixtures and fittings installed.

You can refer to the following guides on how to maintain your flat.

If you require additional help, you may engage your own repair contractor or consider one listed on this page.
