Non-Urgent Requests

Service Requests

To request building alterations, repairs, maintenance, cleaning, sign fabrication services, key/lock changes or event support services (e.g., additional waste/recycling containers, bollards unlocked or irrigation turned off), complete an online work request.

Faculty and staff: Log into the Facilities Management Service Request portal. You can use floor plans to identify exact locations inside buildings and submit indoor and outdoor service requests.
Students: Contact the Customer Relations help desk or (858) 534-2930, 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays.

In-Person Job Walk

We strongly advise that customers with hybrid or remote work arrangements be available for an in-person job walk to ensure that the scope of work is clearly defined for successful project delivery. (This cannot always be achieved through email communication.) Our technicians will work with you to schedule the job walk. To avoid costly inefficiencies or delays, please be aware that any additions to the scope of work during project delivery will require a new work request which will be processed in the order received.

Work Order Status

To check the status of a telephone service request, contact the Customer Relations help desk, (858) 534-2930.
