Why property people work with us
We survey before we price
On bigger jobs it is normal to get two contractors and two completely different answers. We look at the building properly first — including the parts you cannot see from the ground — so the price reflects the work genuinely needed.
Compliance built in
We maintain property so it stays safe and legal for the people using it — and hand over the certificates and paperwork that prove it.
Commercial and domestic
Offices, blocks, commercial units and let homes. Reactive call-outs and planned programmes, under one arrangement with one contractor.

Roof replacements, surveyed before they are priced
Most people asking about a re-roof have already been told two different things by two different contractors — that the whole roof needs stripping, or that a few tiles will do. The honest answer depends on what is underneath the covering, and the only way to know is to look.
We inspect the roof properly, including the loft space and the condition of the battens and underlay, before giving you a price. If a repair will genuinely see you right for another ten years, we will tell you that rather than sell you a roof.
- Pitched roofs in tile and natural or fibre-cement slate
- Flat roofs in EPDM, GRP and felt on extensions and commercial units
- Listed and conservation-area property where the covering has to match
- Scaffold, waste removal and making good included in the quoted price
Specialist service
Facilities management, for people who would rather stop coordinating
If you are accountable for a building but do not want to run it day to day, this is the arrangement that takes it off you. One number to call, and one contractor answerable for the fabric, the reactive repairs, the planned programme and the compliance underneath all of it.
Most maintenance money goes on reactive work that could have been planned. A gutter nobody cleared becomes damp in a corner bedroom; a flat roof nobody inspected becomes a ceiling replacement. Moving spend from the first column to the second is a large part of the job.
- A single point of contact for the building or the whole portfolio
- Reactive repairs alongside a planned maintenance schedule
- Compliance inspections tracked, with renewals flagged before they lapse
- Photographs of completed work, so you can see what was done

“Having recently been introduced to the team at Maintain Property South, I have been impressed by their professionalism, responsiveness and attention to detail. Communication has been prompt, clear and effective, with agreed actions and next steps consistently followed through. They have also been reliable in keeping appointments and meeting agreed times with third-party clients, which in my experience is not always commonplace within the industry. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.”
Common questions
Which areas do you cover?
We are based in Dorset and work across the South of England. Most of our work is in Blandford Forum, Shaftesbury, Bournemouth, Poole, Salisbury, Dorchester, Weymouth, Wareham and Gillingham. If you are outside those, ask — we will tell you straight away whether we can help.
Do you work on commercial property as well as domestic?
Yes. We maintain offices, commercial units and communal blocks alongside let and privately owned homes. We are set up for both rather than treating either as a sideline.
How quickly will I get a quote?
As quickly as we can get you an accurate one. Straightforward jobs are usually quick; anything needing a site visit or a price from a supplier takes longer. Either way we tell you when to expect it rather than leaving you wondering, and we chase it ourselves.
Do you charge for quotes or site visits?
No. Quotes and site visits are free and come with no obligation.
Do you take on ongoing maintenance arrangements?
Yes. Planned and reactive maintenance under a single arrangement is a large part of what we do — for landlords with portfolios, for managing agents, and for businesses with premises to look after.
