A single process for resident maintenance requests
Property Maintenance & Repairs · Charleston & the Lowcountry
Maintenance should feel managed, not like a chain of surprises.
The value of maintenance coordination is not just dispatching a vendor. It is triage, resident communication, documentation, owner thresholds, follow-up, and a clear record of what happened—without the owner chasing every step.

Owner questions
Useful answers before you make a call.
Specific pricing, guarantees, legal interpretations, and property fit should be confirmed in Dwelo’s current written agreement.
In a managed relationship, routine maintenance communication should flow through the management process so requests can be tracked and handled consistently.
Management agreements commonly define owner approval thresholds and emergency exceptions. The exact threshold should be documented before routine work begins.
The specific emergency protocol should be documented, but situations involving immediate safety, active water intrusion, fire, loss of essential services, or similar urgent property risk may require faster action.
That depends on vendor requirements, availability, insurance, quality standards, and the management agreement. Share preferred vendors during onboarding for review.
Completed work and related expenses should flow into owner records and financial reporting so maintenance decisions can be reviewed over time.
