Preventative Maintenance for Lifestyle Properties

The Lifestyle Property Challenge

Lifestyle blocks need professional maintenance, and it is harder to find it

Lifestyle property owners often find themselves in a difficult position. Their homes and buildings need regular exterior care, but many exterior cleaning companies do not service rural or semi-rural areas. Those that do may not carry the right equipment for large properties, or understand the specific protocols required when working in rural environments.

The organic growth challenge on lifestyle blocks is also accelerated. Rural environments, surrounded by paddocks, bush and established trees, expose exterior surfaces to elevated levels of airborne spores and moisture. Roofs and exterior walls on lifestyle properties often develop significant moss and lichen growth faster than their urban equivalents.

Tank water adds another layer of complexity. The products and runoff management practices used near tank water catchments must be carefully selected. This is standard practice for Prevent, not an afterthought.
