The homeowner problem

“I want a seasonal maintenance plan for my house.”

Guide · Maintenance Calendar

What the AI will produce

  • Quarterly checklist (HVAC filter, smoke alarm test, drains, exterior walk-around).
  • Annual checklist with month-by-month due dates (HVAC service, water heater flush, gutter clearing, irrigation winterize).
  • Multi-year refresh windows (caulk + sealant, exterior paint, roof inspection, appliance replacement windows).
  • Pro vs. DIY split (HVAC tune-up = pro, filter change = DIY).
  • Documentation template you can keep in a notebook, app, or shared doc.

Example interaction

The plan that pays for itself

HVAC filter every 1-3 months (DIY). Annual HVAC tune-up + water heater flush (pro — and often discounted in the off-season). Gutter clearing twice a year (DIY if a single-story, hire if anything above arm’s reach from a stable platform). Smoke and CO alarm test monthly, battery swap annually, full replacement every 10 years.

Documentation is the asset

What was done, when, by whom, for how much. This is the paper trail your home inspector reads when you sell — and what your insurer asks for after a claim.
