Keep Your Home Safe and Looking Great
with Our Preventative Maintenance Plans
Owning a home is tough work, and the amount of preventative maintenance and routine inspections you need to complete can be overwhelming, especially if you are a busy household or have mobility challenges. That is where our preventative maintenance plans come in: a handyman on demand who can inspect your home, handle the little things around the house, and get you set up. Think of it as the honey-do list, but the work actually gets done when you need it.
The Biggest Difference
Why is Preventative Maintenance Important?
Preventative maintenance in a home is so important because it keeps your home safe and saves you money over the long term. Fixing small issues before they become problems will help you avoid costly replacements down the line and serious damage to your existing structure. These small tasks can also build savings over time, such as lower utility bills from properly sealed windows and doors and clean HVAC filters.
Flexibility For You
How our Preventative Maintenance Plans work
Our plans give clients the flexibility to keep their homes in perfect working order. From routine tasks such as replacing a lightbulb or cleaning the dryer vent to once-a-year tasks such as water heater flushes, our team creates a plan to service and monitor various components in your home and repair or replace them as needed.
Routine Inspections
Since not every home is the same, our team conducts routine inspections during each visit to assess the home's condition and features. These routine inspections will help us plan the next few visits, as we will know the home’s exact condition and can plan accordingly. The inspections will also help our team notice small issues and note them for the next visit, so we can check the condition and monitor the spot for changes and potential action.
Our Services
Some of the Tasks that We Tackle
As part of our preventative maintenance plan, our local handymen will complete hundreds of small tasks for you. Here's just a small snippet of what we can do around the house to keep your home in order.
Calking and Weather stripping
Over time, the caulk in your bathroom and kitchen will start to peel and wear, and our team can do the dirty work of removing the old caulk and replacing it with new caulk around the tub, shower, countertops, and toilet. We can also replace weatherstripping on windows and doors to keep the rain and cold out of your home.
Furnace filter replacement
Many people forget to replace their furnace filter, which increases strain on your HVAC system. Our team ensures your furnace filter is replaced per manufacturer standards, typically every 60 to 90 days.
Gutter Cleaning
With the wind and rain we get here in Oregon, a gutter cleaning every few months will keep water flowing away from your foundation. Whether it is pine needles, pinecones, or even leaves, your gutters will thank you for regular cleaning.
Water heater flushes
Your hot water tank should be flushed once a year to remove sediment buildup within the heater. Our team can complete this flush and ensure that not a drop of water gets on your hardwood or basement flooring.
Over the range hood cleaning
In many homes, your over-the-range hood has never been cleaned. This grease and grime build-up can be dangerous, and our team will clean it to restore its shine and help prevent potential fire risks in your home.
Install/replace smoke and CO2 detectors
As the seasons change, you should always check your CO2 and smoke detectors in your home. Our handymen can check the batteries and ensure both are operating to spec; if not, they can replace them.
Add non-skid service to stairs
Stairs within the home shouldn't be a danger to scale. Our handymen can add non-skid, stick-on pads to reduce the risk of slipping on laminate or wood stairs.
Dryer vent cleaning
One of the hardest-working pieces of equipment in your home is your dryer. For many families, this appliance is working every few days, and your dryer vent should be clean and clear for proper airflow. With our cleaning services, we can remove dryer lint buildup and ensure your entire dryer vent line is clear from the dryer to the opening.
Washing machine hose replacement
The hoses that come with your washing machine are often not very durable and can slip off, causing water to spill in your laundry room. Our team can replace your traditional rubber supply hoses with metal braided hoses to help lower the risk of floods and water damage in your home.
Water filter replacement
Changing the fridge and ice maker water filter is one of those tasks that many of us forget to do. Our team can complete the change and also check the air filter and replace it if needed.
Refrigerator coil cleaning
Your fridge needs regular care and maintenance to keep operating as designed. This includes regular coil cleaning to help the refrigeration cycle run properly. We can complete this routine cleaning and check the coil and filters to ensure your unit gets the airflow it needs to keep your food and drink cold.
Faucet aerator cleaning
Did you know that your faucets need regular maintenance to keep the water flowing? Cleaning your aerator is one of the best things you can do to keep your faucet running, and if it is extremely dirty or broken, we can even replace it!
