How to create a preventative maintenance plan for your property

• First, write down all the objects you know will need routine maintenance or attention, all the way from your deck to your roof and outdoor furniture.
• Next write down all the potential problems for each object, such as UV damage, rusty nails.
• Write down all the ways to prevent the problems for each object, such as pressure washing, inspection, cleaning with bleach solution.
• Next list how often each maintenance procedure needs to be performed, monthly, twice a year, every two years, every 5 years.
• Lastly write all this into a table and then laminate the table and place in a noticeable place to check regularly.
