Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to common maintenance questions.

How do I submit a maintenance request?

Log into your tenant or owner portal, navigate to the Maintenance tab, click "New Request," and fill out the form with a description, photos, and preferred contact method. You can also call our 24/7 emergency line for urgent issues.

Are there any costs I'm responsible for?

Routine maintenance and wear-and-tear repairs are covered by the property owner. However, damage caused by tenant negligence, pets, or unauthorized modifications may be billed to you. Our portal always shows estimated costs before approval.

Can I schedule the technician at a specific time?

Yes. During the request submission, you can select your preferred availability windows. For emergencies, we prioritize immediate access but will still coordinate with you as quickly as possible.

What if the repair isn't completed correctly?

All work is guaranteed. If an issue persists or isn't resolved properly, open a follow-up ticket in your portal. We will dispatch a supervisor or alternative contractor to re-complete the work at no additional cost.

Do you handle landlord-approved vendors or only your network?

We primarily use our vetted contractor network for quality control and warranty tracking. However, owners can specify preferred vendors for specialized equipment or legacy systems, subject to insurance verification.
