Property Maintenance: How to Maximise Your Home’s Potential
Property maintenance services are a proactive way of sustaining the value of a property, be it your home, a hotel, or your rented buildings. Maintaining clean, safe, and aesthetically pleasing outdoor spaces maximises your home’s potential by focusing on the smaller jobs over time that can stop the bigger jobs from piling up later down the line.
What is Property Maintenance?
Property maintenance is the act of preserving a building and its surroundings to ensure the value, safety, and style remain intact. It’s doing the work now, to save big issues arising later on that could have been avoided.
What Are The Types of Property Maintenance?
- Cosmetic Maintenance – for the aesthetics of the property, often done between tenants on rented properties.
- Routine Maintenance – tasks performed at regular intervals be it weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or yearly.
- Preventive Maintenance – maintenance that future-proofs the item or area to avoid a bigger issue arising.
- Corrective Maintenance – the process of fixing an issue or damage if it wasn’t done previously or was an unforeseen circumstance.
Why Should You Invest in Property Maintenance Services To Maximise Your Home’s Potential:
It Makes The Area Safer
An important reason to keep on top of property maintenance is to make the area, be it the grounds of a home or hotel, safer. Leaving grounds unkept with loose paving or slippery surfaces in public places or in the grounds of a building you rent out can cause injury, and therefore may potentially lead you or your company to be involved in a lawsuit. Choosing a trusted property maintenance service company can ensure your site is clear, tidy, and therefore safe for whoever visits. We offer a range of hard landscaping maintenance services such as weed control every 6-8 weeks alongside moss and algae control as well as pressure cleaning
in January or February.
It Can Improve Customer and Employee Satisfaction Alike
As a landlord or hotel owner, customer and employee satisfaction is hugely important. The exterior of your business should promote professionalism and structure; reflecting on what’s within. Staff are much more likely to take pride in their place of work if the company does the same. Happy employees mean happy customers, and happy customers are returning ones.
Aesthetics Matter
When it comes to maximising your home’s potential, aesthetics matter. A big reason for hiring a property maintenance service company is the visual benefits it comes with, as well as the rest. Keeping your outdoor space tidy and clean offers a great first, second, and umpteenth impression. Each time your customers or tenants are on the grounds, they will form an opinion before they even reach the doors. This means that ensuring the gardens of the property are kept up to a standard that you would like to be portrayed at is important. You could achieve this by booking bi-weekly driveway clearing and 6-monthly painting (https://www.idealhome.co.uk/garden/garden-ideas/shed-paint-ideas-270432).
It Keeps Pests At Bay
Routine and preventative maintenance helps reduce the number of pests that like to live in unkept bushes and shrubbery. Making sure these are cut regularly will reduce your chances of troublesome infestations and keep hygiene standards high. We also recommend organising pest and disease control which should be carried out before the growing season commences at the beginning of April.
It Preserves The Market Value
Well-maintained properties are more likely to retain their market value. Keeping assets to a high standard will not only help in the short term but the long term also. Tasks such as keeping gutters clear of debris and ensuring the roof is cleared and sprayed mean that you are more likely to avoid dampness going into the property. This lessens the chance of water causing damage to the structure and interior.
It Keeps The Ground Usable
Pathways near trees and gravel can often get covered quickly due to leaves falling and stones being kicked while people walk. This can make it hard for disabled visitors or tenants to move around the outside space and maybe even up to the building. Clearing away any debris can help people move around the outside of the property with ease and safely. It’s worth noting that signage placed on walls with climbers or near hedges can easily get covered, so asking your maintenance team to check this on their routine visits would be worthwhile.
It Saves You Time and Expertise
Large garden areas require a lot of work. Thankfully there are expert teams who can come in and tackle the job so you don’t have to. With extensive knowledge of pest control, gutter clearing, vegetation and more, you know your outside space is in good hands.
It Can Be Done While You’re Away
If you’re a landlord who lives away from the property they rent or a hotel owner who doesn’t stay close by, routine property maintenance can give you peace of mind that your property is being looked after. Leave the work to the garden and estate experts to keep your space clean, clear, and functional for all. We offer a range of essential garden maintenance services throughout the year that will prolong and improve the aesthetic value of your outdoor living space.
It Gives You Peace Of Mind That Your Grounds Are Safe
Regular property maintenance services mean the professionals working on your property can pick up on any potential issues or imminent threats that need to be addressed now, or in the near future. This takes the pressure off of you to keep on top of these issues, meaning your mind can be set on something else.
