Maintenance requests

Maintenance requests that go from report to done.

Residents report a problem with photos from their portal. You set the priority, assign your team or a vendor, book the visit and close it, and everyone sees the same status.

Example screen: names, places and figures are samples.

01 · Report

Reported once, with everything you need.

Residents choose what is wrong, describe it, add photos, and say whether you may enter and whether pets are home. The category sets a priority to start from, so a gas smell is an emergency before anyone reads it.

  • Photos from the phone, with location data removed
  • A priority from the category, which you can change
  • Entry permission, pets and access notes for the visit

02 · Assign

Your team or a vendor, by secure link.

Assign a member of your team or a vendor from your directory. A vendor gets a link to that one job: accept or decline, propose a visit, add updates and photos and report the work done, with no account and nothing else in view.

  • Vendor links end when the job closes
  • Visits booked and residents told
  • Costs and staff notes kept private

03 · Track

One inbox, every status.

Every request moves through clear states, from submitted and triaged to scheduled, in progress and closed, with parts, approvals and holds in between. Views and filters keep the urgent ones first.

  • Emergencies and overdue requests first
  • Every change recorded
  • Reopened when the fix did not hold

04 · Measure

Know how fast repairs really happen.

Maintenance reports show requests opened and closed, time to triage, assign and resolve, how often work is reopened, what is overdue and how often vendors accept.

  • Time to resolve
  • Reopened rate
  • Vendor acceptance

Questions, answered

Do vendors need a Holuway account?

No. Each assignment sends the vendor a secure link to that job only. It stops working when the job is reassigned, declined or closed.

How do residents report a repair?

From their resident portal on any phone, with photos. They see each update and can message you about it.

Can I keep costs away from residents?

Yes. Costs and staff notes are private to people on your team with permission to see them.

Can my maintenance staff use it?

Yes. Invite them with the contractor role, which opens maintenance work only, not rent or applications.
