Maintenance & Service Charges

The Lawrence Housing Authority has an obligation to keep your apartment safe and in good repair.

The LHA prioritizes work order based on urgency and will schedule the work promptly. It is imperative for the residents and the LHA to work together for your safety.  

In the event you need any type of repair in your unit, please call 978-689-0281. 

Our office is open Mon-Fri, 8:30 AM – 4:30 PM. After hours, our call center will dispatch our on-call maintenance staff for emergency calls only. 

The LHA will conduct inspections annually and repair any normal wear and tear; however, any damages done to your unit due to deliberate actions or negligence will generate a charge for the repair.
