Thank you!

Closet fell The shelves in my closet fell and I was scared to leave my dog in my apartment alone for fear of it falling on him. I put it in the app and about 10 minutes later I had two maintenance guys at my door ready to work. They fixed it in like 20 minutes so I could go about my day. They are always polite whenever fixing things or just running to them in the hallway. Thanks for being such great people!
