Back to Basics – Maintenance 101

Will Hays, CTL Management

Working in Property Maintenance is a challenging and rewarding career. For the new Maintenance Person, it may seem a bit overwhelming at first, especially without an experienced supervisor or mentor. From day-to-day work orders, to time management, to Turnover processes, there are countless techniques, procedures, and rules that you won’t find in any manual or guide. In this class, we’ll discuss many of these “unwritten” rules and processes. Also, we’ll address the skills required, the resources available, and a variety of techniques for the new Maintenance Technician, as well as skills for identifying many of the “trap-doors” in Property Management and how to avoid them.
