by admin Property Maintenance Services, the luxia

Keeping your property in top shape all year round is essential—whether you’re a landlord, homeowner, or investor. Weather changes can take a toll on buildings, and seasonal maintenance ensures your property stays safe, attractive, and valuable.

Here’s a practical seasonal property maintenance checklist tailored for Indian conditions, especially Delhi NCR and similar climates.

Spring (March – May)

A season of preparation—ideal for deep cleaning and inspection.

Spring Maintenance Checklist:

  • Check for cracks or damage caused by winter chill.

  • Clean and inspect gutters and downspouts.

  • Deep clean windows, grills, and balconies.

  • Service air conditioners before peak summer.

  • Paint touch-ups for walls, grills, and gates.

  • Check for pests and treat early signs.

  • Landscape: trim trees, fertilize lawn/garden.

Summer (May – June)

The hottest season—focus on cooling systems and outdoor maintenance.

Summer Maintenance Checklist:

  • Ensure ACs and coolers are working efficiently.

  • Install or check sun shades, curtains, or reflective film.

  • Inspect plumbing for leaks due to heat expansion.

  • Check and clean water storage tanks.

  • Test electrical systems—fans, switches, circuits.

  • Inspect for dry rot in woodwork and balconies.

  • Keep water tanks full (especially in water-scarce areas).

Monsoon (July – September)

Heavy rains can cause major damage—focus on waterproofing and drainage.

Monsoon Maintenance Checklist:

  • Inspect and seal roof leaks or cracks.

  • Clean drainage pipes and gutters to prevent waterlogging.

  • Apply or check waterproof coatings on walls.

  • Inspect basements and ground floors for seepage.

  • Install/repair insect mesh on windows to keep mosquitoes out.

  • Check electrical points and wires for water damage.

  • Keep a standby pump or sump pump (for water-prone areas).

Winter (November – February)

Cold weather needs insulation and appliance checks.

Winter Maintenance Checklist:

  • Service geysers, heaters, and solar water systems.

  • Insulate windows and doors to reduce cold air entry.

  • Check pipes and plumbing to avoid winter cracks.

  • Clean and inspect chimneys or exhausts.

  • Store garden hoses or outdoor taps.

  • Inspect roofs for moss, leaks, or sagging tiles.

  • Prune trees and remove dead plants.

Bonus Tips for All Seasons:

  • Conduct regular pest control every quarter.

  • Keep an updated maintenance log.

  • Hire professionals (like The Luxia) for quarterly inspections.
