I woke up this morning and noticed that one of the window panes in my bedroom is completely shattered. It also has a doggy door in the glass which we've never used, but has caused previous issues such as mould.
Being a Sunday, contacted the real estate agent's emergency repair line and sent through photos.
They advised to avoid the window and it would be fixed tomorrow.
My question is, is it reasonable to wait for this to be fixed? They stated it is safety glass and that it should be fine but I'm not entirely sure. I also have a pet cat who normally sleeps in the room with me and would be concerned of it breaking during the night and her getting out as she's an indoor cat. Also concerned about it shattering during the night and having broken glass on the carpet and a huge draught next to our bed. It gets cold here in Melbourne.
I did ask if we could organise someone to come today and we could send an invoice but haven't had a response from the REA.
