Building maintenance activities are instruments to promote sustainability and performance as it supports greater durability and efficiency of systems and reduces operating costs. In this research, the profile of the plumbing systems’ maintenance work orders from different buildings belonging to a Brazilian public university was evaluated to indicate suggestions for promoting efficiency of building maintenance. The research was carried out by analyzing the reports of the buildings’ maintenance work orders from a university in the Midwest region of Brazil between the years 2010 and 2019. Plumbing systems represented 36.48% of all building maintenance demands and 30% of the buildings with the highest incidence of maintenance were newly completed. Buildings up to 5 years old had already consumed approximately 30% of the construction cost with maintenance interventions and had higher maintenance rates than older buildings. Leaks in faucets and blockages in toilet bowls accounted for 26.20% and 23.41% of the records. The propositions in this research support more sustainable implementation of maintenance plans by public managers and validate actions aimed at improving the stages of project design, work execution, inspection and approval of similar buildings.
