5 Types of Construction Maintenance

Your new building appears to be in great shape, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that you can forgo construction maintenance. A well-maintained structure will be able to serve its purpose for a longer time. It will continue to look good and more importantly, be safe for all occupants. Regular maintenance also prevents expensive repairs later on. 

 

There are many kinds of construction maintenance services. Your building doesn’t necessarily need all of them. Maintenance requirements will depend on how the building is designed and used.

Types of construction maintenance services

 

·         Day-to-day repairs – This refers to regular repairs done in the building, including the maintenance and restoration of water supply, repair of blown fuses, lawn mowing, hedge cutting, and more. The main purpose of this type of maintenance service is to keep the building in good condition. 

 

·         Annual maintenance - This type of service is focused on maintaining the aesthetics of a structure to preserve its life. This way, it will remain presentable and attractive. Some examples of annual maintenance include whitewashing, painting, and distempering. 

 

·         Special repairs - When parts of the buildings get damaged due to ageing, special repairs need to be done. This should be carried out as soon as possible so that the parts are restored and used again.  

 

·         Additions and alterations - Building additions or alterations also fall under maintenance. They are commonly done to old facilities or buildings that need updating for functional efficiency. 

 

·         Preventive maintenance - Some issues are not obvious to the naked eye. They can be hiding behind the walls. That’s why preventive building maintenance is necessary. It involves maintaining and repairing machinery at a fixed time regardless of its condition, which means replacing machines that have reached the end of their lives, whether or not they are still working.Many features of a building naturally deteriorate over time. This is why time-based maintenance is important.
