REQUESTS
When maintenance requests are submitted, they are emailed directly to the Maintenance Team and Community Manager. They are only reviewed during business hours and any requests submitted after 3:30pm (Monday-Friday) are not guaranteed to be completed on the day they are received. Requests not completed the day they are received will be completed on the next business day.
EMERGENCIES
If you believe the you have an emergency maintenance issue, you must contact our On-Call CA Team at (724) 648-3696. The following are typically considered emergencies: active water leak, power outage, broken window, broken front door lock (unable to access the apartment), AC or Heat not working, electrical issues, or you are locked out of your apartment.
ISSUES THAT DO NOT REQUIRE A MAINTENANCE REQUEST:
- Internet issues - the internet is managed and maintenanced by the university. Any issues related to the internet or WIFI need to be submitted directly to the University Technology Services Department (UTech). You can email them at techsupport@pennwest.edu or call them at (724) 938-5911.
- Ethernet jacks in the common area - these jacks DO NOT work and it is not possible for us to connect them.
- Stink bugs - they are an invasive species and a nuisance, however they are not dangerous and do not bite or sting. The best way to prevent them from getting into your aparment is to keep your screens in the windows, windows closed, and your front door shut.
