For most people a house is more than just a place to live in- it’s also an investment. And you’ll find that, like all investments, you get a lot more out of it when you look after it and make sure it is doing well.
Property maintenance is a vital part of owning a home, and you’ll find that the benefits of a well looked after water and gas system are essential to peace of mind and happy living. And, of course, if you own a dedicated investment property, you’ll need to keep it in good condition for attracting and keeping tenants, as well as keeping them safe.
Neglecting to keep your property in good shape can have some serious consequences and affect more than just your wallet. Have your home regularly maintained to greatly reduce the risk of the following.
A water leak can do some serious damage. Rust, stains and rotten wood are all symptoms of a water leak and can lead to a variety of structural problems if left untreated. There’s also the serious danger to both people and property arising simply from water getting into the electrical system, something that is easily done when there’s leaking where it shouldn’t be
Health issues
Mould and other harmful bacteria can grow in areas that are damp, and a water leak will do that very well, even if you can’t see it. And while your home’s ventilation system should prevent too much gas building up inside your home, even a small amount can be incredibly dangerous around electrical devices (even more so if they’re old or faulty).
Of course, a property that’s in poor shape is going to be worth less than a well-maintained one. And not only will it sell for less, but it will also turn off potential buyers from considering it in the first place. Water damage is not easy to conceal once its set in. A well-maintained property gives a really good first impression that is worth far more than the sum of its parts.
Other issues going unnoticed for longer
One of the worst feelings of owning a home can be having to deal with a large problem that would have been so much easier to fix before it got out of hand. The eyes of a professional tradesman will be able to pick up things that the layman might miss. While it may ultimately be an electrician or a carpenter who does the final repair/maintenance, it needs to be spotted by someone before it can be acted upon.
