FAQ
What's the difference between area and system maintenance?
Area focuses on a place (kitchen, bathroom, attic). System focuses on a function (HVAC, plumbing, electrical). Many tasks overlap—use both views to stay organized.
Which areas need the most maintenance?
Kitchen and bathroom (plumbing, ventilation), attic (insulation, leaks), and areas with water or HVAC equipment. Start there, then expand.
How do I maintain a bathroom to prevent mold?
Run the fan during and after showers, fix leaks promptly, recaulk when sealant fails, and keep surfaces dry. Good ventilation is essential.
What should I check in the attic annually?
Look for leaks, pest signs, insulation condition, and ventilation. Document with photos. Don't store items that block airflow or hide problems.
How do I maintain my garage?
Inspect the door and opener monthly, keep the floor clear of oil and debris, and ensure ventilation if you store chemicals or run equipment.
