I could share a lot of national statistics with you about the importance of preventive maintenance or lack thereof on homes, but I’ll spare you as it’s this simple; American homeowners spend more money on preventable home repairs annually than they do preventive maintenance. Fact, if you do not perform preventive maintenance on your home on a regular basis, your homes expensive equipment or the structure itself will have failures that can get into the tens of thousands of dollars quickly.
Preventive maintenance is primarily about two things, 1) Allowing your home to operate efficiently as it’s designed to do which saves on energy cost and 2) Increasing the longevity of your home and its expensive equipment so premature replacement or costly repairs become much less of a factor.
Working as the Director of Operations and maintaining a 500,000 square foot commercial building for the past five years has given me a new prospective on the importance and the value that comes with a good preventive program. Simply put, it saves money on energy and unnecessary premature repairs and replacement.
At Superior Handyman and Home Services we can design a Preventive Maintenance Plan for your home that will accomplish just what I’ve mentioned for a reasonable cost that will save you money and remove the worry of future costly and premature home repairs. And you don’t have to touch a thing, you leave that to us.
Pricing is based on the square footage of your home and the initial free home assessment. The overall cost of your plan includes the free replacement of all common HVAC filters, light bulbs and batteries for your homes safety devices such as in fire and carbon dioxide detectors for the term of or relationship.
