Why Regular Home Maintenance Saves Vancouver Homeowners Thousands in Future Repairs


How Much Should You Budget for Home Maintenance and Repairs?


Most homeowners don’t realize it, but the number one cause of expensive renovations isn’t accidents or storms — it’s delayed maintenance.


In rainy, moisture-heavy regions like Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam, North Vancouver, West Vancouver, and the surrounding areas, small problems become big ones fast. A tiny leak becomes water damage. A soft board becomes rot. A hairline crack becomes structural repair.


That’s why so many homeowners are now searching for reliable contractors who don’t just fix problems — they prevent them.
This is exactly where Aftermath Contracting helps homeowners stay ahead.




What Happens When Maintenance Gets Ignored


1. Moisture Builds Up Behind Walls & Siding


Rainwater sneaks into weaknesses around siding, windows, fascia, and trim.
If not repaired early, it leads to mold, rot, and structural deterioration.


2. Paint & Exterior Surfaces Break Down Faster


Old paint stops protecting the home.
Exposed wood absorbs moisture, swells, and weakens the exterior.


3. Interior Damage Begins Silently


Most interior issues start outside.
When water gets in, drywall softens, bases swell, and flooring lifts — often before anyone notices.


4. Small Repairs Become Full Renovations


A $200 repair can turn into a $8,000 rebuild when moisture spreads.
