This guide gives you an idea of the general maintenance your character property may require.
General maintenance ensures that your property retains its quality and value. Water ingress and ventilation are the biggest challenges when considering our older housing.
Simply checking roofs, chimneys, rainwater guttering and drainage regularly can avoid more significant problems later on. If caught early enough a broken downpipe could be replaced without further damage and the possibility of more costly and extensive repairs at a later date. Older traditional buildings were designed to breathe and ventilation is very important to help maintain the building fabric.
