Resource Centers

These resource centers organize the same body of commercial exterior maintenance knowledge by role, because the person responsible for a distribution center and the person responsible for an HOA common area face genuinely different versions of the same problem. Each one starts from what that role actually owns and points to the specific resources that address it.

Shared Across Every Role

Regardless of property type, four practices account for most of the difference between exterior maintenance that works and exterior maintenance that costs more than it should.

1. Inspect on a schedule using the printable checklists, and record findings whether or not anything is found.
2. Zone by rate of visible change rather than setting one frequency for the whole property.
3. Write a scope before soliciting bids, so proposals answer the same question and can be compared.
4. Define acceptance criteria in advance, so verification is an inspection rather than a negotiation.

The Professional Library collects all of this in one place, alongside the twenty-five-article commercial pressure washing reference.
