Preventive Maintenance Program (PMP) for South Carolina associations

Owning a seasonal or vacation home comes with unique responsibilities. Whether you're a year-round resident, seasonal homeowner, or frequent traveler, maintaining your property while you're away can be challenging.

FirstService Residential is committed to enhancing the resident experience through value-added services that support homeowners and their communities. Our Maintenance Services Program extends that commitment by providing access to professional maintenance technicians who can assist with routine home inspections, preventive maintenance services, and homeowner-requested repairs.
 

About our Preventive Maintenance Program

The preventive maintenance program is specifically designed for homeowners who own seasonal residences, vacation homes, or second properties. Through regularly scheduled visits and inspections, homeowners can gain insight into the condition of their property and address maintenance concerns in a timely manner.

Each month, a FirstService Residential maintenance technician conducts a comprehensive preventive maintenance inspection of your home. These inspections focus on identifying visible maintenance issues and monitoring key systems that require regular attention.
 

During each visit, our maintenance professionals inspect:

• HVAC systems and thermostat settings
   
• Electrical panels and accessible electrical components
   
• Water heaters
   
• Faucets and plumbing fixtures
   
• Toilets, drains, and drain traps
   
• Interior and exterior lighting
   
• Exterior door locks and hardware
   
• Visible signs of leaks or water intrusion
   
• General condition of key home systems and components

These scheduled inspections provide homeowners with a convenient way to monitor their property's condition, particularly when they are away for extended periods.
 

Storm preparedness and seasonal monitoring

Homes located in coastal South Carolina can experience changing weather conditions throughout the year. As part of our Preventive Maintenance Program, FirstService Residential also provides storm preparedness support during weather events such as hurricanes, tropical storms, or freeze conditions.

When significant weather events are expected, our team can conduct additional property assessments when conditions permit. These visits help identify visible issues that may require homeowner attention and provide additional support for residents who may not be in the area during weather-related events.
 

Supporting homeowners through convenient building and community maintenance services

Maintaining a home involves more than routine inspections. Many homeowners occasionally need assistance with repairs, installations, and general upkeep projects. FirstService Residential offers access to maintenance professionals who can help with a variety of homeowner-requested services outside of association responsibilities.
