Start with what the house is doing.

You do not need to know the trade before you call. Start with the symptom, the room, or the system. Each entry explains what the desk hears, what to have ready, and when the problem can usually wait.

If it is urgent

Water spreading, no heat below freezing, smoke, gas, arcing, or a door that will not secure: call the desk now. For fire, gas, CO, or a life-threatening emergency, call 911 or the utility first.

If you are planning

A slow drain, a cosmetic repair, a remodel, or a seasonal check can wait for a normal appointment. Use the entry to get the details straight before you call.
