THE COST OF DEFERRED
MAINTENANCE
Changing weather conditions can significantly affect your community's
infrastructure. In fact, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration
reports that 403 weather events from 1980-2024 produced nearly $3 trillion in
damages.
Regularly maintaining your community is important—especially in the season of
spring storms. By addressing small spring tasks now, like patching up roof leaks,
securing sidewalk cracks, or refreshing the grounds of the outdoor play area, you
may be able to avoid the costly consequences of deferred maintenance later.
In our decades of experience, we at Associa have witnessed, first-hand, what
happens when you don't keep up with regular spring maintenance. Here, Jamie
Luke, senior vice president of Associa OnCall, details the spring risks and liabilities
associations must avoid to have an enjoyable season. Read on!
