ARC Inspections and Preventative Care
Doctors recommend we schedule a physical exam at least once a year as an annual check-up on our well-being and overall health. Through preventative care, medical professionals can often detect things that fall outside of the scope of what we know to check for ourselves. Having a professional take a look at our “blueprint” ensures we are healthy both inside and out, and as a result- grants us peace of mind.
The BrickKicker offers ARC (Attic, Roof, and Crawlspace) Inspections as a “check-up” for your home. These three areas of the home are furthest from daily sight, and the least traversed. Therefore, issues in these areas often go undeteced until a small issue has exponentially worsened. Our team is here to dive into these problem areas and keep you informed about your home’s health and safety. Let’s discuss the benefits of an ARC Inspection!
1. Reduce Repair Costs
Maintaining a home is a significant investment that requires consistent care to ensure its longevity and functionality. Preventative maintenance involves annual inspections and timely repairs to address potential issues before they escalate into costly problems. This proactive approach not only preserves the value of your property but also enhances safety and comfort for its occupants.
This being said, one of the primary benefits of preventative maintenance is cost savings. By identifying and addressing minor issues early, homeowners can avoid the substantial expenses associated with major repairs. For instance, fixing a small roof leak promptly can prevent extensive water damage that might require significant structural repairs. Additionally, well-maintained homes are more energy-efficient, leading to reduced utility bills over time.
2. Increase Home Safety
Safety is another critical aspect of home maintenance and preventative care. Annual inspections can uncover hazards such as faulty wiring, mold growth, or structural weaknesses that could pose risks to the inhabitants. Addressing these issues promptly ensures a safe living environment and can prevent accidents or health problems related to neglected home conditions.
A home’s safety is especially crucial for families with children or older residents. Attics and crawlspaces are frequently homes to pests of varying sizes. Chewed wiring, loose plumbing, missing insulation, and other damages caused by wildlife could lead to injuries or even life-threatening situations if left unaddressed. Preventative maintenance ensures that every element of your home, from fire safety systems to structural integrity, is in peak condition, giving homeowners peace of mind and protecting loved ones from avoidable dangers.
3. Protect Home Comfort
Preventative care and maintenance also contributes to the overall comfort and functionality of a home. Well-maintained HVAC systems, plumbing, and electrical setups operate more efficiently. This provides consistent comfort, convenience, and lowers utility costs. Moreover, staying ahead of maintenance tasks can reduce the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns that disrupt daily life.
