Maintenance Matters! a new web resource designed by Cadw, the Welsh Assembly Government\u2019s historic environment service, for owners of historic and listed properties, is now live after its launch \u00a0in June, with a unique capacity for users to create and store customized maintenance plans for their buildings which can then be used as a basis for regular inspections.<\/p>\n
This resource enables owners not only to monitor the condition of their buildings over time, but also to compile a key component of their logbook that will help to chronicle the history of the building.<\/p>\n
The website also offers expert advice coupled with photographs and drawings to provide an online guide to maintaining historic buildings, what to look for, when and how to keep the properties in best possible condition.<\/p>\n
Alun Ffred Jones, said: “A stitch in time saves nine is what they say and it certainly holds many truths when it comes to looking after historic properties. A maintenance issue which is nipped in the bud at an early stage can often save a lot of trouble and expense later on. I urge owners of historic properties to log on to the Maintenance Matters website and create a personal plan for their own property. The website will hopefully become a valuable aide memoire for owners and a useful resource on a wide range of topics and tips, including advice on what to look out for, identifying common signs of damage as well as what to do next in the event of a problem arising.”<\/p>\n
