What do I do if I have a maintenance issue?

Review your lease agreement – this will advise you on what your responsibilities are. The Lessee is usually responsible for repair and maintenance issues such as changing light globes, plumbing fittings (such as washers and mixers) and repairing and maintaining door hinges, door handles, door closers and door locks installed in the property. Fitzpatricks Commercial can suggest qualified tradespersons if required. Under most commercial leases the lessor is responsible for the roof and exterior of the building and keeping it water tight.
