As spring approaches in Melbourne and the Mornington Peninsula, it's the perfect time for Owners Corporations and Body Corporates to implement a proactive maintenance plan. This step can help property owners save themselves from major hassles. Here is a spring maintenance plan for a variety of building types for your benefit:
1. Inspection and cleaning:
-
Conduct a thorough inspection of the building's exterior, including the roofs, facades, and windows.
-
Clean the gutters, downspouts, and drainage systems throughout to prevent water damage.
2. Heating, cooling and ventilation:
-
Schedule heating, cooling and ventilation maintenance to ensure efficient cooling and heating during the upcoming seasons.
-
Replace the air filters and clean ducts thoroughly as it is needed.
3. Landscaping and grounds:
-
Prune the trees, shrubs, and bushes to promote healthy growth.
-
Repair any damaged walkways, parking lots, or outdoor lighting.
4. Exterior repairs:
-
Address any exterior maintenance issues, such as peeling paint, cracked render, failed waterproofing or damaged tiles.
-
Seal gaps and cracks to prevent pest and moisture infiltration.
5. Safety systems:

Test and maintain the fire alarms, sprinkler systems, and emergency lighting regularly.
-
Inspect and replace worn-out or expired safety equipment.
