Oliver Bucksey 1 minute read

Most maintenance decisions are made based on cost.

In buildings with older residents, the correct starting point is risk.

According to the Office for National Statistics, over 11 million people in England and Wales are aged 65+.

WHAT CHANGES

- safety
- access
- confidence

RISKS

- slip hazards
- water overflow
- poor access conditions
- resident complaints

REACTIVE MAINTENANCE FAILS

WHAT GOOD LOOKS LIKE

- regular inspections
- planned treatments
- clean access routes
- clear reporting
