Maintenance Matters is a series of bulletins and videos designed to provide practical information on the maintenance of the building envelope of multi-unit residential buildings including townhouses, low and high-rise residential buildings.

Anyone who lives in or looks after a multi-unit residential building should read this bulletin including residents/unit owners, strata councils, housing co-ops, maintenance managers, property managers or building owners.

Proper maintenance of the building envelope can help prevent damage and avoid costly repairs in the future. To be notified of new Maintenance Matters bulletins or videos, subscribe by visiting the Email Subscriptions page.
