Planned maintenance and capital works programmes

Understand what your building needs and when to budget for it, with a maintenance programme shaped around the property.

Plan your maintenance programme

Plan ahead for repairs and replacement

Repeated reactive repairs can make it difficult to see what the building will need next. A planned maintenance programme brings the condition findings together with the likely timing of future works.

WHBC can prepare a programme for an individual building or an agreed portfolio. The planning period can cover 5 or 10 years, with priorities and indicative allowances that help you consider expenditure before work becomes urgent.

A programme built around the property

  • Condition review: inspect the agreed building elements and consider available maintenance records.
  • Work priorities: identify defects needing early attention and distinguish them from future renewal needs.
  • Programme development: organise recommended works across the agreed planning period, considering related activities.
  • Budget planning: provide indicative cost allowances with the assumptions and further investigation needs recorded.

What you receive

A maintenance schedule records the work recommended for each building element, with an indicative delivery period and budget allowance. Supporting photographs help locate the findings. The programme provides a basis for annual budget reviews and can be developed into individual packages for tendering.

Example scenario: coordinating external works

For example, a proposed external maintenance programme might bring roof repairs and high level decoration into the same period where they could share access arrangements. The appraisal would consider whether that timing is appropriate for the condition of each element.

Questions about this service

A programme can cover 5 or 10 years, or another agreed period. Near term works can be described in more detail, while later allowances can identify likely renewal expenditure for review as the building ages.

No. They are indicative planning allowances based on the agreed scope and available information. Detailed investigations and contractor tendering may be needed before you approve a particular work package.

Yes. We can review an existing report and discuss whether it provides a suitable basis. A further inspection may be needed where information is incomplete or the condition has changed.

Yes. An agreed review can record completed works and reassess future priorities. Budget allowances can also be updated so the programme remains useful for the next spending decision.
