Emergency vs. Planned Repair Guide

Not every repair request is an emergency, and not every planned issue should wait. A clear first message helps separate active priority conditions from route-friendly repair scopes.

Use emergency language for active priority conditions

Emergency review is most appropriate when the condition is active, worsening, affecting occupancy, creating immediate property exposure, or tied to water entry, access, security, or a serious safety concern.

Describe what is happening right now, what has already been done temporarily, whether anyone is on site, and the best callback number.

Use planned repair language for stable scopes

Planned repair requests fit inspection lists, grouped maintenance, screen or opening work, weatherization, facility upkeep, and conditions that need review but are not actively getting worse.

  • Photos and location details
  • Measurements, counts, or report items where useful
  • Access, gate, tenant, road, animal, or event constraints
  • Priority level and timing constraints
  • Whether the issue is active now or has remained stable

Do not let remote logistics hide priority details

Remote Harney County and South County requests still need clear priority language. If the condition is active, say so directly before route timing is reviewed.

If the issue is stable, a complete planned-repair message may make it easier to group materials, access, and schedule considerations into a practical next step.

Need help choosing the right request type?

Send what is happening now, photos, address or location, access notes, priority level, and timing constraints so the request can be reviewed correctly.
