Lojjik L. Braughler
Practical facilities and property support for small portfolios, light commercial spaces, and nonprofits in western Pennsylvania.
I help get maintenance work organized and moving: PM schedules, asset lists, work order tracking, vendor coordination, walkthroughs, and repairs.
- PM schedules and recurring task lists
- Asset lists and service intervals
- Work order tracking setup
- Vendor coordination and scope review
- Walkthroughs, punchlists, and basic repairs
Short-term projects are fine. One building, one site, or a small portfolio.

How it works
Initial call
We talk through the property, the kind of help you need, and what I may be able to offer.
Walkthrough or document review
Depending on the job, I either walk the site or review what you already have. That usually includes major systems, recurring issues, vendor coverage, and documentation gaps.
Written follow up
You get a clear list of what needs attention, what should be planned next, and a way to track it.
Who this is for
This is a good fit for:
- Small residential portfolios
- Small offices or retail spaces
- Nonprofits with limited facilities coverage
- Owners or teams that need maintenance better organized
Probably not a fit for:
- Large sites needing full-time on-site coverage
- Work requiring stamped engineering or design services
- Highly specialized industrial or healthcare environments
If you’re unsure, email a short description and the location.
About
I come from a hands-on facilities background and tend to work best where maintenance needs to be organized, documented, and followed through without a lot of drama.
That can mean building a PM schedule, cleaning up a work order process, walking a property to identify priorities, coordinating vendors, or handling smaller repairs directly. I'm most useful for small organizations or properties that need practical support and a clearer system for keeping up with the work.
FAQs
Do you do hands-on work or manage vendors?
Both. I can handle smaller repairs and troubleshooting directly. For trade work or larger scopes, I coordinate vendors, review quotes, and track closeout.
What do you use for work orders or PM tracking?
That depends on the property. Sometimes a spreadsheet or shared list is enough. If you already use a CMMS, I can help organize assets, PMs, and workflow inside it.
How do you charge?
It depends on the kind of work. Smaller defined projects can be priced as a fixed fee. Ongoing support, walkthroughs, troubleshooting, and working with vendors are usually billed hourly. If you send a short description of the property and what you need, I can tell you what makes the most sense.
Can you help even if nothing is "broken" right now?
Yes. A lot of the value is in getting ahead of missed maintenance, unclear responsibilities, and repeat problems.
Contact
Email is usually the easiest way to start. A short description of the property, location, and what you need help with is enough.
