Your community is unique - that means your maintenance plan should be, too. This ebook is designed to help you create a proactive maintenance plan that's tailored to your specific type of community so that you can keep every building, amenity and landscaped area beautiful and functional for generations to come. 

Our maintenance experts have provided tips tailored to: 

  • Single-family communities. When a person is asked to think of a community, for most of us, the single-family community — one with free-standing residential homes — comes to mind. Typical items found in single-family community maintenance programs include common areas and elements such as gazebos, playgrounds, and walking paths. 
  • Condo communities. Your community maintenance plan should center around the upkeep of building exteriors, sidewalks and driveways.
  • High-rise communities. Luxury high-rise communities, which are typically found in the center of major cities, need a robust maintenance plan that covers building mechanicals, timely cleaning, and upkeep services and security.
  • Active-adult communities. Active-adult community maintenance should be driven by tasks like routine safety and elevator inspections and facilities maintenance, such as tennis court and pool upkeep.
