Keeping your home in top shape is more than just cleaning and the occasional repair—it’s about routine care that prevents issues before they start. But how do you know when it’s time to move from handling tasks yourself to subscribing to a professional property maintenance plan?

If you're juggling work, family, and everything in between, here are the top signs your home is telling you it’s time to bring in the pros.

1. You’re Constantly Making Emergency Repairs

Does it feel like every month there's a new issue? Whether it’s a leaking faucet, a flickering light, or a broken door hinge, constant breakdowns are a major red flag that your property lacks preventative care.

With a property maintenance plan, these recurring headaches are replaced by proactive solutions—saving you time and stress.

2. You Can’t Keep Track of What Needs to Be Done

From HVAC filter replacements to caulking windows and checking smoke detectors, routine maintenance tasks are easy to forget—until they cause problems.

A maintenance plan ensures everything is handled on schedule, including:

• Seasonal system checks
• Landscaping and exterior upkeep
• Appliance inspections
• Safety hazard evaluations

3. You Manage Multiple Properties

If you own rental homes, Airbnb properties, or a commercial space, you likely don’t have the time to personally oversee maintenance at each location. A structured property maintenance plan provides consistent quality and streamlined scheduling across all your investments.

At Finishing Touches, we work with:

• Homeowners
• Real estate investors
• Assisted living facilities
• Storefront and commercial properties

4. You’ve Had a Move-Out Go Wrong

One of the most stressful parts of owning a rental is the transition between tenants. Without a system in place, move-out inspections can turn into rushed, chaotic events—especially when cleaning, painting, or minor repairs are needed fast.

With our maintenance subscription, move-out inspections are part of the process. We help get your property back to “rent-ready” in no time.

5. You’re Spending More on Piecemeal Repairs

While it may seem cheaper to call in a handyman only when something breaks, those piecemeal fixes add up—and often fail to address the bigger picture.

Our all-inclusive property maintenance plans offer more value through:

• Predictable monthly costs
• Scheduled checkups
• Preventative maintenance
• Immediate access to repair experts

6. Your Home’s Appearance Is Declining

Curb appeal isn’t just about vanity—it’s about value. Dirty siding, unkept landscaping, and faded paint can affect how your home is perceived and even impact its market worth.

Our ongoing maintenance covers services like:

• Pressure washing
• Landscaping touch-ups
• Carpet and flooring care
• Paint refreshes and caulking

These small efforts keep your home or property looking its best all year long.

7. You’re Tired of Playing “Project Manager”

Coordinating with electricians, landscapers, plumbers, and cleaners can be a full-time job. Our maintenance plans eliminate the hassle by centralizing everything through one trusted team—Finishing Touches.

We handle the communication, scheduling, and follow-through—so you can just enjoy your home.
