Overview

The Repair Requests feature allows residents to submit maintenance requests and work orders from the BuildingLink resident portal. These work orders will be automatically received by building staff. Depending on your building's settings, this feature may or may not be enabled for your property.

Submitting Repair Requests

If your building has enabled the ability for residents to submit repair requests through BuildingLink, you’ll see the option to do so right on the Home Page. In the "Building Info" section, click on the My Repair Requests button



 

 On the "Repair Request" screen, you will see any previously submitted repair requests that have not yet been completed by building staff.  If you wish to view repair requests that have already been completed, check the "Include Closed Repair Requests" option.   



 

To place a new request, click the Submit Repair Request button and fill out the form from top to bottom.

Viewing Repair Request Details and Adding Comments

To check the status of a repair request or to add a comment to an existing request, click the My Repair Requests button on the home page. Under the "My Repair Requests" section you will see the status of your work request as either "Open" or "On Hold." To see if a work request has been closed out, check the box next to "Include Closed Repair Request."

 


 

To see if additional comments have been added to a request, click Edit/View Details next to the repair request you'd like to see.
