Definition of an Emergency that may require immediate attention: Where lives or health are at risk or there is serious risk to the property. Permanent repairs may be carried out at a later date – the priority is to ensure safety.

The following problems are examples of the type of situation that would be considered as emergencies:

  • total loss of electric power; (if electrics go off, then first check the fuse board to see if the electrics have tripped)
  • unsafe, broken or missing electrical fitting (not simply defective) comprising a dangerous fault that is immediately life threatening;
  • total loss of gas supply;
  • gas leak on the property side of the meter;
  • blocked, damaged or defective flue to an open fire or gas appliance;
  • total loss of space heating or water heating (between 1 November and 31 March only) for those with special needs such as disabled, young baby etc;
  • blocked toilet pan if only one in house, soil stack or blocked foul drain;
  • leak from a water supply pipe, heating pipe, tank or cistern;
  • boarding up a broken window or door;
  • loss of heating or hot water in housing for the elderly.

Examples of who to call and guidance if cannot wait and own temporary solution not possible:

  1. 999 for Police, ambulance or fire service.
  2. If you smell gas, call National Grid on 0880 111 999
  3. Utility companies emergency/helpline numbers.
  4. Customer Care Emergency Helpline policy number for new/insured properties.
  5. 24 Hour tradesmen from 118500 or local tradesman number*.
  6. Belvoir Office on 0151 256 0880 – not manned 24 hours

To avoid misunderstanding, Belvoir does not provide a concierge out-of-hours service including for emergencies but will, where possible, return your call soonest to offer guidance and assistance.

NON EMERGENCY REQUESTS. Lost keys, locking yourself out, requests for assistance of a routine nature and similar out of hours do not constitute an emergency and should be dealt with on a common sense self-help basis as you would with your own property. For example, calling out a 24 hour locksmith if locked out.

We don’t wish to be unhelpful but non-emergency requests to Belvoir for out-of-hours assistance should be avoided (as should last minute problems other than for raising our awareness). No guarantee is given that a call of this nature will result in a same-day response as it may depend on other factors. Call-outs may be charged at a rate of £30 per hour or part thereof, depending on the nature of any such request.
