NOTE: If you are entering a Maintenance request for areas outside your unit select Shared and enter in the request under your common area. Please specify that this request is for outside your unit.

As per the Residence Handbook, by submitting this request you are authorizing staff to enter your room to complete the necessary repairs.

Making maintenance more efficient

  • If there are several problems, please submit separate requests.
  • Inform your roommates that a request has been entered and to expect a maintenance person to come by.
  • Maintenance staff are on the job from 9 a.m. through 4 p.m., Monday through Friday.
  • When you submit a maintenance request, you are granting permission for maintenance staff to enter your unit and/or bedroom between the aforementioned work hours even if you or your roommates are not there to let them in.

It may take between one and three days to respond to your repair, depending on the urgency of the request and the volume of requests received. (Emergency repairs and urgent issues, such as light bulbs, are given higher priority than slow drains.)
