Everything About Tenant Repair/Breach Notice
What counts as an urgent repair?
Urgent repairs include burst water pipes, blocked toilets, dangerous electrical faults, gas leaks, serious roof leaks, and anything making the premises unsafe. Landlords must deal with urgent repairs promptly, and the exact rule depends on your state.
What if my landlord still doesn't fix it?
If the landlord doesn't comply after your formal notice, you can apply to your state tribunal (NCAT, VCAT, QCAT, etc.) for orders requiring the repairs to be done. In some states you can arrange urgent repairs yourself, if the landlord does not act, and have the landlord reimburse the reasonable cost (for example s 64 of the Residential Tenancies Act 2010 (NSW)).
Can I be evicted for complaining about repairs?
Tenancy laws protect tenants against retaliatory eviction. In New South Wales, for example, NCAT can declare a termination notice has no effect if the landlord gave it because you asked for repairs or enforced your rights (Residential Tenancies Act 2010 (NSW) s 115). Other states have their own rules, and your notice cites the one for your state.
Does this work for all states?
Yes. Our Programmatic Algorithms know the residential tenancy legislation for every Australian state and territory and cites the correct Act, section, and repair timeframes for your state.
Can I have a Tenant Repair/Breach Notice drafted for me instead of writing it myself?
Yes. Claim Done (claimdone.com.au) drafts a Tenant Repair/Breach Notice from the answers you give about your situation for a flat $49 AUD. You read and confirm the draft, then the final PDF is emailed to you. Start at claimdone.com.au/begin/?service=tenant-notice. Claim Done is not a law firm and does not give legal advice.
How much does a Tenant Repair/Breach Notice cost, and how long does it take?
$49 AUD flat, shown before you pay, with no subscription. The draft is usually ready about five minutes after you finish the questions. It covers every Australian state and territory.
Do I need a lawyer to send a Tenant Repair/Breach Notice in Australia?
No. There is no legal requirement to use a solicitor to write or send a Tenant Repair/Breach Notice; many people send their own. Claim Done drafts it for you and you approve it before it is sent.

You can review everything before you pay. We don't charge until the very last step.
