Whether you own or rent your property, or you have acquired a commercial property, planned and reactive maintenance is essential. Property is an investment and therefore ensuring it is in a good state of repair is the best way to protect your asset.
Planned versus reactive maintenance
Whilst you can’t plan for everything, there is potential cost saving by considering regularly scheduled maintenance. Protecting the integrity and structure of a property not only helps maintain the exterior but prevents potential issues throughout the interior of the building. Ignoring the start of issues such as minor leaks can be fatal over time water damage and wreak havoc on property.
Domestic property maintenance
Often this is the time of year when homeowners discover they have issues with their property. As autumn is well underway and winter is around the corner, adverse weather conditions are the usual culprit for damage to your property. It’s not too late to have a proper look around your home and act before you must react to potentially costly damage. Unblocking gutters can go a long way to preventing serious issues in heavy rain. Whilst we may not be able to predict which fence panels will blow down, replacing those that are rotten or loose is a sensible course of action. When fence panels are down, it leaves your property exposed with easy access for potential criminal activity as well as causing safety issues for pets such as dogs. You may take the view that the best course of action is to look at fencing gutters and your roof before winter kicks in. This is where a reputable property maintenance company can carry out all checks and repairs safely before any issues occur; prevention is better than cure as they say!
