We're here to help

You can call us on 0300 131 7300 with any questions or concerns. We're open Monday to Friday, 9am – 4pm, excluding bank and public holidays.

If you have a staff member's mobile number, such as your Neighbour Services Officer or Tenancy Officer, you can call them directly.

If you have an emergency while we are closed, you can call our out-of-hours service on 0300 131 7300. They are available 24/7.

What is an emergency?

Emergencies can include flooding or serious water ingress, structural damage to the property, a gas leak, domestic abuse or severe anti-social behaviour that makes you feel unsafe in your home or that your life is in danger.

Heating is only considered an emergency between 1 October and 31 March or if you're a vulnerable resident.

Not having hot water is only treated as an emergency if you or members of your family are considered vulnerable, disabled or you have an illness which could be made worse by not having hot water.

If it’s not an emergency, please email RepairsAndMaintenance@isha.co.uk or call us during our opening hours.

If you are concerned about your building's structural safety or fire safety (alarms, smoke detectors, and evacuation procedures) or want to discuss Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs) and EWS1 forms, email BuildingSafety@isha.co.uk or call 0300 131 7300.

You can also find lots of useful information in our fire safety leaflets.

If you spot a patch of damp or mould, report it to us immediately. We will visit your property, assess the issue and if the problem is more serious, we will let you know how we will undertake the repair.

Using an advocate to communicate with us

We understand that sometimes you may need extra support when speaking to us. You can choose someone you trust to speak on your behalf; this is called an advocate.

An advocate can help by:

  • requesting repairs and maintenance
  • helping you understand your tenancy agreement and discussing it with us on your behalf
  • talking to us about any concerns or issues you have.

Request an advocate

If you'd like to request an advocate, please check with them first. If they are willing to represent you, you'll need to provide us with their contact details and written permission for them to act on your behalf.

Third-party authorisation

We are here to support you and make sure your needs are met. If you have any questions or need help, don’t hesitate to contact us. Your comfort and well-being are of the utmost importance to us.
