How long will it take for my request to be resolved?

When work is received it is assigned to one of five priority levels. Within each priority level work is assigned primarily on a first-in, first-out basis, subject to coordination of work and availability of time, materials and human resources. As requests are received, they will be scheduled according to the following priorities.

Emergency

Emergencies will be addressed as soon as possible. Examples are failure in electrical power, a break in the water line, lock failure, personal safety, etc.

Same-day service

This refers to failures that impair but do not render inoperative and will normally be accomplished within 24 hours.

10-day service

This service is considered a higher priority routine work. All routine work is scheduled depending on the availability of the trades persons and materials involved. Our objective is to complete the request in 10 working days.

30-day service

This service is considered a lower priority routine work. Labor and material availability place work in this category. Our objective is to complete the request in 30 working days.

Deferred work

While every attempt is made to accomplish all work in a timely manner, there are times when maintenance must be deferred. The requesting department or individual will be notified of the reasons for the delay. The understanding of the occupants affected in these cases is greatly appreciated.

In general, there are no costs associated with routine maintenance Å·ÃÀAƬ. With the case of vandalism or misuse of a building component, costs will be the responsibility of the identified individual or department.

Also, it is important to understand the difference between routine maintenance (i.e., the work orders submitted for repair) and a project or renovation requested by a staff for a personal space. The following types of services are a partial list of those paid for by the requesting department:

• Installing special or dedicated department equipment
• Maintaining special or dedicated department equipment
• Furniture or work stations
• Appliances
• Office painting
• Carpeting replacement

No, the requester does not need to be present when the skilled trade worker comes to resolve the issue. Once the technicians have completed the request, they will email the requestor or housing office for confirmation and to provide recommendations if necessary.

If you have any questions from the time your request is submitted to after the work is done, simply respond to the email initiated by the technician. Alternatively, residents of Waterfront Lofts may visit the Student Housing Office.
