Who it is for
A manageable maintenance system for UK homeowners
The planner is designed for homeowners who want a manageable monthly and seasonal routine, clearer repair records and one place for service history, warranties and spending.
As a result, routine observations and completed work remain connected instead of being scattered across notes, emails and receipts.
What makes it useful
- Uses plain-English prompts designed around UK homes and seasons
- Keeps dated observations separate from guessed diagnoses
- Connects planned tasks, completed repairs, actual spend, servicing and warranties
- Builds a record that can help explain change to an appropriate contractor or professional
- Encourages safe observation and escalation when an issue is uncertain or safety-related

Digital format & compatibility
This is a digital download only, so no physical item is supplied. The customer ZIP contains printable A4 and fillable PDF files, an editable .xlsx workbook, instructions, a licence and an exact manifest.
Because PDF apps behave differently, test a short fillable entry, save it, close the file and reopen it before relying on the form.
Meanwhile, spreadsheet formula cells remain protected while designated working cells stay editable. The workbook records due dates and status, but it does not send phone or email reminders.
The PDFs are not represented as fully tagged accessible PDFs. Customer working files are supplied blank.
The method
Use the planner in four clear steps
- Set sensible dates around the property, local exposure, warranties and professional guidance.
- Record what you observe without guessing the cause.
- Give photographs and documents the same reference as the planner entry.
- Escalate uncertain or safety-related issues and move larger projects into a properly scoped project record.
In practice, this keeps simple maintenance simple while making it easier to identify when an issue needs professional input.

Important professional boundary
An organiser — not a maintenance specification
These resources are organisational and educational aids. They do not inspect, diagnose, value, design, certify or approve a property.
Likewise, they do not provide legal, engineering, electrical, gas, fire-safety or other specialist advice. Therefore, obtain appropriately qualified property-specific advice before making financial, legal or safety decisions.
This is a scheduling and record-keeping aid, not a maintenance specification or a fire, gas, electrical, asbestos or other specialist safety assessment.
For the same reason, Hunter Ellis does not claim endorsement by RICS, RPSA, CABE or another professional body through this product.
Before you buy
Frequently asked questions
Does the planner tell me how to repair defects?
No. Instead, it helps you notice, record, schedule and escalate. Repair design and safety advice remain with the appropriately qualified person.
Will it send reminders?
No. The workbook records due dates and status, but it does not send phone or email notifications. Therefore, use your own calendar or reminder system where alerts are important.
Can I track warranties and servicing?
Yes. Dedicated records keep servicing, warranties, repairs and spending connected to the property history.
Are the checks suitable for every home?
They are UK-focused prompts rather than a property-specific maintenance specification. As a result, you should adjust timing to the building, exposure, warranties and professional advice.
What formats are included?
The digital download includes printable A4 and fillable PDF files plus an editable protected Excel workbook.
