Frequently asked questions

How long does it typically take to complete a daily building maintenance inspection?

Most daily building maintenance inspections take between 30-60 minutes depending on your facility’s size and complexity. The Lumiform digital checklist helps streamline this process by organizing tasks logically and allowing for quick documentation. As your team becomes familiar with the routine, efficiency improves, and you’ll identify potential issues more quickly while maintaining thorough oversight.

How can I ensure maintenance staff actually completes the daily checklist?

With Lumiform’s digital daily building maintenance checklist, you receive automatic notifications when inspections are completed or missed. The system timestamps entries and allows photo documentation of issues, creating accountability. You can review completed checklists remotely, assign follow-up tasks immediately, and track completion patterns to ensure consistent implementation across your maintenance team.

What’s the difference between daily, weekly and monthly building maintenance tasks?

Daily building maintenance tasks focus on immediate safety, functionality and appearance issues like checking lighting, inspecting common areas, and addressing spills. Weekly tasks typically involve more thorough inspections of mechanical systems, while monthly maintenance includes preventive maintenance on equipment, more detailed inspections, and systems testing that would be impractical to perform daily.

What should maintenance staff do when they find an issue during the daily inspection?

When maintenance staff discovers an issue during daily inspections, they should document it thoroughly in the Lumiform app with photos and descriptions, assess its urgency, make immediate repairs for simple problems, and create action items for complex issues. The system allows them to assign responsibility, set deadlines, and track resolution, ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
