These days, most of us aren't as 'handy' as we should be - and we don't even realise how much of a difference a bit of routine maintenance can make to our homes. Taking proper care of your house is easy, and it'll save you a small fortune in the long run.

Come check out our new home maintenance section on BUILD. It contains a wealth of useful advice and tips on how to clean and maintain your home, from all corners of the site.

Best of all, it features an excellent downloadable house maintenance schedule, which you can fill out, adapt, print and stick on the fridge to remind you of what needs to be done, and when to do it.
