There is an issue or a problem in my home, what do I do?

Written by Xena

We know that sometimes things break or go missing — and when that happens, we’re here to help. Below you'll find everything you need to know to report an issue effectively and get the fastest resolution possible.


What type of issues can LifeX help with?

We’ll assist you with any apartment-related issues, including:

  • Broken or missing items (e.g. microwave, lamp, glasses, plates)

  • Heating or hot water not working

  • Appliance issues (washing machine, dishwasher, fridge, etc.)

  • Common area or furniture problems

📌 Please note: We cannot repair personal items such as your own coffee machine, laptop, etc.

⚠️ Some issues may require involvement from the landlord or building administration, which can extend the resolution time.

📝 How to report an issue

  1. Open the LifeX App and go to the “Support” tab

When reporting, always include:
