Thoughts on a Home Maintaince Program

In this day and age we all find ourselves busy with a lot of different activities and sometimes don’t have time to take care of what really needs to be done around our own home.  Or we lack the knowledge and skills base to know what should be or needs to be done.  Or we have a family member or friend that needs help with taking care of things around the home and because of distance, knowledge or time are not able to be as helpful as one hopes when they do need someone.  I know myself I have found this to be true.  

There are home warranty companies out there that for a comparable price will give you limited coverage but that is only after something breaks and is not preventive in nature where this is preventative in nature.   Of course if something were to cease to function properly you can always call someone in that particular trade such as a plumber for plumbing problems  and an electrician for electrical problems and a lot of times a lot of those problems would not be problems if you had only checked them on a ongoing basis and when attention was noted contacted someone then to remedy a problem before it became an bigger issue. 

We then have what is called deferred maintenance problems which is kind of a pay me now or pay me more later kind of thing.   That little water leak in time has rotted away something, or the ground fault electrical plug has stopped working or we forgot to put up our outside water hoses for the winter and the faucet ends up freezing and causing damage and or a water leak inside the wall that we are unaware of or we go without replacing those hard to access light bulbs and end up in the dark at a unplanned moment because we  did not have a tall enough ladder, or just did not have the time. 

Maybe you got everything done at your home but not at your mom’s home as she says everything is fine and you take her at her word because in her world it is all fine until she really has a problem and then it becomes a crisis.  Well….. there is a solution to all this. 

One of my past clients family member who has also been a former client of mine as well in real estate Jimmy McKinney of J & R Construction Services Inc has come up solution with a program to offer a home maintenance program for those whose description is similar to what was described above. 

There is a reasonable monthly fee based on the level of service you desire and on a quarterly basis you have someone come out and check out your property and let you know how things look and complete 5 elective services that you choose from on a list plus from 1-2 hours of maintenance depending on which level you choose from.  If there is something that is outside the realm of normal maintenance that they cannot provide they have a list of prescreened professionals in their field service providers that will give you 10% off of their normal rates.  This way you know you are dealing with reputable folks who know how to do the job right at a reasonable rate.  Perfect solution to a lot of potential problems and a great timesaver and it sure may make a great closing gift or Christmas present maybe even for my own mom even though she says all is ok for now the last time I was there visiting I happened to look around and noticed that there were some things that needed to be done and I personally must confess I have not found the time to do them yet……

here’s a link to a brochure on the program  http://www.jrcsi.com/images/HomeMaintenanceBrochure.pdf and also a link to the company website www.jrcsi.com so you can get a little back ground on them as well.  JRCSI is a member of the better business bureau and the Lexington Homebuilders Association and they do have references.  Hope you can use this information to save you time or perhaps to help a family member or friend who is not able or have the time too…. Please note - this is not an ad for them and I am receiving no compensation for adding this information to my blog and  it has been added because I, myself see value here for a service needed.”

                With much anticipation our Home Maintenance Program © is in full swing.  We got a lot of feedback from our initial mailing and realize that there is a lack of understanding the program.  This type of program is complex enough that we realize that we need to meet with you one on one and explain the benefits of this program.  Here is what some of our current members are saying.

                -Bill Beach of Nicholasville says, “I just wanted to let you know that I am very pleased with the Home Maintenance contract we have with your company.  This morning we found ourselves with a continuous water leak in our kitchen and with out of state company coming in to spend the weekend with us we had to resolve the problem quickly.  It really paid off to have your company looking out for our Home Maintenance.  Thanks for your quick response to our needs,”

                -Donna Pizzuto of Lexington says, “I appreciate the fact that someone can come in and take care of a minor problem that would consume my time off, if I were to attempt to take care of.  I know I do not have to worry with the hassles and stress of maintaining my home.  I can really enjoy my time at home instead of working there too.”
