Wondering what preventative maintenance home owners should be undertaking to keep the house in good nick and to save $$$ on repairs. Please share anything you’ve learned the hard way so I can learn it the easy way.
I am aware of some basic ones like:
* surface coatings on exterior timber
* weeding
* flushing drains with lye
* cleaning mould in bathroom / sinks
* aircon filters
Is there anything else?
