When you submit the form, it will be sent to the appropriate person and a copy will be sent to the requestor for your records. Please make a note of the request number issued to you so you can track progress and/or monitor the response.

Rechargeable Work

Rechargeable works can now be logged using the Helpdesk Request Form. Please ensure appropriate authorisation has been obtained before submitting your request. Rechargeable works will proceed on the assumption that you are, or have sought and obtained approval from, the budget holder for any costs associated with the works. The Directorate will not accept responsibility for recharges being made where the appropriate approval has not been obtained.

Residences

Residents in the University's halls of residence should log all their requests for work on Building Maintenance
