MAINTENANCE SERVICE REQUESTS
We are here to serve you, please call if something is not just right. You allow us to better serve your needs by calling us immediately, no matter how "seemingly small" the situation.
Service Guarantee
Management staff will respond as quickly as possible to any service call. If an immediate resolution is not possible, we will provide a comprehensive response, in sufficient detail, of how and when we propose to satisfy the service call.
If you experience a problem within your suite that requires maintenance assistance and/or repair, please have your Tenant Representative:
2. If you need immediate attention/emergency, please call the emergency phone number, 1-844-DUKE-FIX [1-844-385-3349]
3. Provide his/her name, building address, company name and suite number.
4. Describe the problem as accurately as he/she can.
5. Provide a contact name if different from Tenant Representative placing the work order.
6. The Tenant is required to authorize any work requested
The management staff will address the problem as soon as possible, sending someone to assist you or making whatever other arrangements are necessary. Pursuant to the Lease Agreement, if the repair or maintenance work is not the Landlord’s responsibility, then Tenant will be charged for such work at Landlord’s cost plus appropriate mark-up. Maintenance personnel are required to receive instructions and assignments from the Management Office/work order only. This procedure helps the management staff to track your requests and ensures that they are resolved in a timely fashion.
