The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings (SPAB) has announced the launch of National Maintenance Week from November 18th to 25th 2011.
SPAB says:
Regular maintenance is vital for all properties, regardless of age, scale or purpose. Now entering its tenth year, SPAB’s annual National Maintenance Week brings practical and straightforward advice on maintenance and repairs to everyone who looks after a property. As usual, National Maintenance Week takes place at the end of November, just as winter weather threatens the worst.
During the filming of the fascinating TV series ‘Climbing Great Buildings’ Jonathan Foyle took a bird’s eye view of some of the nation’s most iconic and spectacular structures – including their roofs and gutters! After enjoying that unique vantage point, it’s no surprise that he’s a passionate and informed advocate of the importance of regular maintenance.
This year Jonathan has been ‘roped in’ to lead SPAB’s 10th annual National Maintenance Week campaign – and as Chief Executive of the World Monuments Fund Britain he is doubly committed to highlighting the vital importance of maintenance for buildings of all types.
