- Fire
- Serious medical condition or injury
What is a maintenance emergency?
A maintenance emergency is something that, if it isn’t repaired immediately, could cause injury, threaten your health, or cause serious property damage. Here are some specific examples:
- Broken water pipes
- Active leak at risk of flooding the area
- A sewer back-up
- Building exterior doors not locking
Not every maintenance issue is an emergency. If, for example, you have some lights out in a room or a slow drip that can be contained with a bucket, you’ll want maintenance to take a look, but it is not an emergency.
Facilities Services and Support
You must not make any repairs and alterations yourself. If discovered, you may be liable to restore the space to its original condition. If your lab or office needs any repairs or alterations, contact Stanley Facilities. Your request will be reviewed and forwarded to the appropriate department. If you have already initiated the scoping/design process with an appropriate department, you still need to contact Stanley Facilities for approval to proceed.
The following are common examples of alterations:
- Tamper with electrical or data wiring
- Install additional locks
- Drill holes into walls or floors

Do not leave trash or containers in the stairways or hallway. The hallways should be clear at all times in case of an emergency.
Do not use your own garbage bags.
Do not put any sharps (e.g. needles) in trash or leave them on the floor. Uncontaminated sharps cannot be thrown in the trash. They must be put away in a sturdy cardboard box that is sealed with tape. Then mark the box “Trash, Please Remove” so the custodians know to pick it up.
Chemical containers are only to be placed in trash if the container is triple rinsed, defaced, and dry.
If the custodians see any sharps, powder, paste, or liquid on the floor, they will not service the area for their own health and safety.
For guidance on the disposal of hazardous material, consult the EH&S Dispose of Waste.
For special cleaning requests such as carpet shampoo or cleaning appliances are recharged, submit a general request to Stanley Facilities.
Dry Ice (sign-out required) is available in the Stockroom, Room 156. Please email Receiving at qb3receiving@berkeley.edu if you have any questions. If you plan to ship materials packed with dry ice, please contact Thom Opal or campus EH&S.
Liquid nitrogen is available to authorized labs in the filling station, Room 170 (outside at the loading dock, NW side of the building).
