Depending on the type of home you live in, some of the areas covered may not be needed. For example, you may not have a driveway or garden, so just select what’s helpful for you.
It is not a comprehensive maintenance manual and should be referred to for guidance purposes only. Always seek advice from a qualified professional if you are unsure or need further help.
Your health and safety are always our priority. Certain types of maintenance or repair may require specialist knowledge and training. If in doubt always seek professional advice before
commencing any works or maintenance.

Changes to your home
If you decide, at any time, to make changes to your new home, it is important to remember:
- Any changes you wish to make must abide by your contractual agreement with Qualis, often known as the covenant.
- Should you wish to add an extension or make any additions/alterations to your home, always check the local authority planning regulations, as the work may be subject to planning permission or permitted development rights.
- Any changes you do make will not be covered by your Qualis warranty or the Build-Zone 10-year warranty and may also adversely affect all or part of your warranty cover. Please check with us before you proceed with any planned works.
- Generally, for any changes you wish to make, if you’re at all unsure, please contact us and we will be happy to advise you.
