Topic: What's the average time to punch a unit?
Alyssa Lacy each site has a supervisor and 2 techs. If we are talking just a punch (as she said, this isnt paint and clean, JUST a punch) 1 guy can do 2-3 a day. That’s why I asked how bad they are, if it’s a 40 year old property and people are trashing it, that’s not a normal punch.

No. I'm not like that.
I don't schedule punches on Mondays to provide time to catch up on weekend work orders. Then no punches on Fridays to allow for anything overlooked, parts that were out of stock, etc.
If it's a trash out, replacing all blinds, or something difficult for another reason, I schedule 1.5 - 2 days.

You managers should trust your supervisors. It depends on so many variables. Some take a couple hours, some take a 2 days. Try doing a couple days where you actually go out with your maintenance team and shadow them. From grounds to work orders and turns.
Then, have your maintenance team shadow your day.

It depends on what Property Management company your working for, as they all have different responsibilities and expectations from the the maintenance technicians. There are some who vendor most items out and there are some that put all or most of those responsibilities on the maintenance technicians. Kinda hard to determine a "average time" when you have these differences in workloads.
