As a rental property owner, you need to routinely examine your rental properties’ windows for gaps, water damage, cracks, and other problems as part of your complete property maintenance plan. Basic window maintenance that should be completed regularly includes changing the weather-stripping and sealing gaps. If any of the windows in your Windermere rental property seep moisture, trap condensation, or are broken, they have to be replaced.
Though it might be appealing, it is not a smart idea to ask residents to do maintenance, repairs, or replacement of a rental property’s windows. Asking residents to perform repairs creates issues concerning liability that can lead to greater problems down the road, even if they possess the proper skills. There is also no guarantee that the maintenance or repair your windows need is going to be done right. Keep in mind that neglected windows can cause more costly property damage in the future.
Repairing and replacing windows by yourself may appear like another good choice, especially if you are trying to save some money. However, even if you know what you are doing, you endanger yourself when you handle a potentially hazardous material such as glass. Also, the proper installation of windows is essential for their long-term effectiveness and function. Due to this, tasks like replacing glass panes or even whole windows should be left up to the experts.
Remembering to perform routine window maintenance along with everything else you already have to do can be tough. That’s why Real Property Management South Orlando offers maintenance programs that will take care of all these tasks for you.
