Welcome to National Maintenance Week ~ November 20th to 27th 2009

Regular maintenance is vital for all properties, regardless of age, scale or purpose. Now in its seventh year, SPAB's annual National Maintenance Week in association with Jewsons brings practical and straightforward advice on maintenance and repairs to everyone who looks after a property. As usual, National Maintenance Week takes place at the end of November, just as winter weather threatens the worst.

We are delighted that this year, Phil Spencer, of popular TV property shows Location Location Location and Relocation, Relocation is leading our campaign to highlight the importance of regular home maintenance and offering his ten top tips.

He explains: "The plain fact of the matter is that maintaining your property makes good sense and saves money. However, the sad truth of the matter is that many people put property maintenance way down their list of priorities.

It's like dealing with your health - try to remember that prevention is always better than cure.

In the long-run regular maintenance of your home is far less intrusive and expensive than letting it fall into disrepair and then having to fix it up again."

And remember ~ Friday November 27th is National Gutters Day!
