Maintenance Request

IF THERE IS AN EMERGENCY

There are few emergencies. Emergencies are life-threatening situations such as fires, flooding and/or uncontrollable water, electrical problems, smell of gas, etc.

For emergencies causing immediate danger such as fire, call 911.
For emergiencies involving gas, call the gas company and, if necessary, call 911.
After contacting one of the above sources, call our office and report the problem.
For emergencies such as backed up plumbing or flooding, contact our office and, if necessary, call 911.
Heat is not an emergency, but we recognize this is important and will make it a priority with vendors to have the heat working as soon as possible.
An emergency is not air conditioning, non-working dishwater, sprinklers, etc.

FOR NON-EMERGENCIES

Contact our 24/7 Maintenance Center at (619) 866-5923, or by submitting a maintenance request in writing to our office (this can be mailed or brought in)
A vendor will be assigned to contact you.
We do not give vendors keys to the residences.
Vendors are required to make appointments with the tenants.
Remember, for non-emergency items, the vendor will not be able to make an appointment immediately.
Failure to show at an appointment will result in a charge to you. Be certain to call our office as soon as possible if you are unable to make the appointment.
If you do not hear from a vendor or repairperson within 5 business days, call our office to inform us that the vendor has not contacted you. We will contact the vendor to find out the cause of the delay, then inform you when to expect a call from the vendor.
After a repair has taken place, if you encounter any issues, contact our office and state that you had a recent repair but there is still a problem. Recent repair means within the last 60 days–for pest control work, within 30 days.
If you fail to report an unsolved, recent repair and there is further damage or expense, you may be responsible for the cost, per your rental agreement.
