    How often should I schedule preventative maintenance for my commercial property?

    The frequency of preventative maintenance for a commercial property depends on several factors, including the type of equipment and systems involved, the age of the property, and its usage.

      • Plumbing problems including leaky pipes, clogged drains, and water heater issues.
      • Structural issues such as cracks in walls or foundations, roof leaks, and deteriorating building materials.
      • Safety concerns such as inadequate fire protection systems, missing or damaged safety features, and non-compliance with building codes and regulations.
