Reporting a problem on premises

Who you should contact to report a problem with premises depends on what the fault is and in which building it has occurred.

Problems concerning

  • heating
  • ventilation
  • lighting (not special workplace lighting or the replacement of bulbs or fluorescent tubes)
  • water and sewage
  • refuse collection from recycling rooms
  • external or internal maintenance
  • snow clearance and gritting

should be reported to the property owner, Akademiska Hus

Make a maintenance request to Akademiska Hus.

In case of emergency, you can call +46 (0)10-557 24 00.

This applies to most buildings on campus. If the fault has occurred in a building on Umeå Arts Campus or on Västerbotten County Council premises, the problem should instead be reported using these contact details:
