A Guide to Second Home Building Maintenance 1

A Guide to Second Home Building Maintenance

If you own a holiday home, you probably spend a few months a year enjoying the sunshine, yet with any property that sits empty for a few months at a time, building maintenance is essential. When the home is not in use, this is the perfect time to carry out building maintenance, and with quality property maintenance services in Plymouth, you can schedule the work at your convenience.

Annual Maintenace Contract

Most holiday homeowners engage the services of a property management company, who would schedule regular building inspections, and should any remedial work need to be done, they would inform the owner and ask for approval to carry out the work. Typical maintenance would include the following:

  • Roof repairs
  • Cleaning out the guttering
  • Repointing the brickwork
  • Repaint the door and window frames
  • Grounds maintenance – Keeping the garden looking tidy.

Emergencies

If no one is living in the property and a water pipe burst, this could have serious consequences, and the property management company would make regular visits, to ensure that all is well. Included in the contract would likely be dealing with any serious building works that might occur, and some property maintenance companies will also find tenants for their clients, should this service be required.

Online Solutions

If you would like to make contact with a property management company, a Google search will bring up a list of local specialists, and you can take it from there. It is essential to upkeep any property that is uninhabited for most of the year, and this is the responsibility of the property maintenance provider.
