Home Maintenance Check - Not mandatory, just smart :)
Fortunately a Home Maintenance Check is not mandatory like the one for your car, but it does make sense. For example, to:
- simply enable you to really enjoy your home, often your most precious possession
- protect your home from moisture and decay problems by means of paintwork
- to invest in your home while reducing your taxable capital in tax Box 3 before the end of the year
- take advantage of the current low VAT rates on paint, plaster and wallpaper work
- Add 1 or 2 photos: this is optional but helpful
- Add a “DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF JOB” if necessary
- Click “An expert ASAP”. Don’t click “First a quote”: after the check you can get a quote if you want to have jobs done for more than ~€500 / 1 day.
