The study investigated the maintenance management practice in three university staff housing in South-western Nigeria with a view to examining the relationship between the maintenance system and the quality of the housing stocks in the universities studied.
The study concluded that the control of the determinants of maintenance needs and causes of decay significantly affected maintenance performance. Employee satisfaction, the maintenance departments' responsiveness to tenants' complaints and the maintenance backlog were critical in the performance evaluation of the maintenance departments.
