Let’s say a resident has a leaking toilet. That resident can submit a work order request through an app using their smart phone, the website using a desktop computer, or by calling in the request and speaking to one of our customer service representatives (maybe you!). After the work order has been created, our system and dispatch team send it to a qualified plumber in our network. Our Follow Up Team then ensures the toilet gets fixed in a timely manner and the resident is kept updated along the way.
