Is Your Elevator Maintenance Company Protecting Your Asset?
When was the last time you looked inside your elevator pit?
Most property managers and building owners say the same thing:
“That’s what the elevator company is for.”
But here’s the reality 👇
A hydraulic elevator pit doesn’t fill with oil overnight. It happens slowly — over months — due to:
• Failing jack seals
• Leaking hoses or fittings
• Deteriorated packing
• Poor inspection practices
• Inadequate routine maintenance
And when oil accumulates in the pit, it can lead to:
⚠️ Environmental contamination
⚠️ Code violations
⚠️ Fire risk
⚠️ Corrosion of critical safety components
⚠️ Expensive emergency repairs
More importantly, it’s a red flag that preventive maintenance may not be happening at the level your agreement implies.
Your elevator isn’t just a convenience.
It’s a regulated, high-value mechanical asset.
At Resolution Elevator, we believe maintenance should be proactive — not reactive. We focus on:
✔ Thorough inspections
✔ Transparent reporting
✔ Early leak detection
✔ Protecting long-term equipment reliability
If you’re unsure whether your current provider is truly protecting your investment, it may be time for a professional maintenance review.
Your elevator should be an asset — not a liability hiding below the lowest landing.
