For property managers

Your PMs aren’t dispatchers.

Adelaide residential real estate agencies use Briks as a single maintenance supplier — Tapi-native, 60-minute after-hours dispatch, one invoice per job direct to the landlord. Your PMs stop chasing tradies and go back to leasing + retention.
  • Licensed tradies

    Vetted network

  • Insured + compliant

    ABN 90 697 367 721

  • 24 / 7 emergency

    Real humans, no IVR

What this is

A single building-services supplier for your entire portfolio.

Briks Building Services operates as a managed maintenance supplier for Adelaide residential real estate agencies. We cover every trade — plumbing, electrical, carpentry, painting, tiling, roofing, gas, HVAC, handyman — under one supplier record in your existing system (Tapi, MaintenanceManager, PropertyMe, REST Professional, Console, or email).

Work orders flow in. Our coordinator triages, dispatches the right specialist from a vetted licensed bench, communicates directly with the tenant, photo-documents the job, and issues a single line-item invoice in the landlord’s name. The PM only sees status updates — the dispatcher workload moves off the desk entirely.

The status quo hurts

Three problems Briks solves for SA agencies.

PMs spending 40% of their week as dispatchers

Every tenant complaint is a phone tree: get tradie, get quote, get landlord approval, schedule, chase, invoice, reconcile. Your property managers were hired to lease + retain, not run a maintenance call centre.

Five tradies for five trades — five invoices

A single multi-trade job at one property turns into five suppliers, five invoices, five sets of bookkeeping reconciliation. Multiply across a 200-door portfolio and the admin cost is brutal.

Insurance + compliance evidence chase

When a claim comes in, you spend 90 minutes chasing tradies for photos, dates, and a description of what happened. Defending bond decisions at SACAT without solid documentation is a coin flip.

The workflow

Four steps. Zero process change for your PMs.

  1. 01

    Add Briks as preferred supplier

    Inside your maintenance system (Tapi, MaintenanceManager, PropertyMe, REST Professional, or plain email). One supplier record. No process change for your PMs — they keep raising work orders the same way they always have.

  2. 02

    Briks triages every inbound work order

    AI-assisted parsing extracts the job scope automatically. A human coordinator reviews, picks the right trade off our vetted bench, schedules with the tenant, and confirms the visit window back to the PM.

  3. 03

    On-site, on-spec, photo-documented

    Right specialist for the work. Photo evidence at attendance, mid-job, and completion. Tenant signs off on the visit summary. Insurance-grade documentation packaged automatically.

  4. 04

    One invoice per job, direct to landlord

    Single line-item invoice in the landlord's name with full ABN + GST detail. Sent via your system, no separate biller relationships. Briks handles the bookkeeping with each tradie on the back end — your agency sees one supplier on its books.

Integrations

Works inside the systems your agency already uses.

Tapi

Briks runs as a Tapi-native preferred supplier. Work orders flow in, AI extracts scope, status updates flow back via the Tapi API. Zero re-entry.

MaintenanceManager

Email-based work order ingestion. Briks parses the inbound, creates an internal job, links photos + reports back to the original work order ID.

PropertyMe + REST Professional

Email-based ingestion with PMS-aware formatting. Invoices are issued in formats your agency's accountant + property accounts team already process.

Plain email + WhatsApp

Smaller agencies or interim arrangements — work order via email or WhatsApp, Briks confirms scope + ETA in the same channel.

What agencies say

Trust Adelaide already gave us.

It’s rare to find a company you can genuinely trust to just take care of it, but Briks does exactly that.

Briks Building Services has honestly made my life so much easier. Managing multiple properties usually means constantly chasing different tradies, following up quotes, organising access, and dealing with delays — but with Briks, it’s one phone call and everything is handled. The communication was exceptional from start to finish, and every tenant I dealt with commented on how professional and respectful the team was. The quality of the work was outstanding, completed on time, and without any stress on my end. It’s rare to find a company you can genuinely trust to just ‘take care of it,’ but Briks does exactly that.
