Is Your Home Due for its 10-Year Checkup? It May Need it More Than You Think

June 10, 2009 - PRLog -- (Cary NC)- Would you let your car go 10,000 miles without an oil change?  Take it on a long trip with out checking the tires?  Well, many homeowners are doing the equivalent when it comes to maintaining their homes. Things that require regular maintenance and repair are sometimes neglected until they reach the point where they break down.  

That was the inspiration for the Brightleaf Customer Care program. Founders Bernie, Judy and Cory Malloy were frustrated at seeing owners of expensive homes neglecting or putting off needed maintenance or repairs.  As they investigated, they found that one of the main reasons for the problem was that homeowners didn’t have the time or the knowledge to handle it.

“We found that many of the homeowners were busy executives who didn’t have the time to call around for estimates, or be at home between the hours of 8:00 and noon to wait for a repairman,” said Cory Malloy.  “The other situation was simply homeowners not knowing how to recognize things that needed attention.”

With Brightleaf Customer Care, homeowners contract with a single, knowledgeable and trustworthy source to provide complete home inspection and home maintenance services.

Here is how the program works:

   Members of Brightleaf Customer Care receive a comprehensive and thorough home inspection from the licensed professionals of Brightleaf. The inspection includes items such as heating and air conditioning, hot water heater, roof and foundation, and plumbing.

   Members are provided with a highly detailed report that includes repair recommendations and the identification of potential problems.

   Members have the option of working with the Brightleaf Customer Care team to schedule, coordinate and supervise all repair work to insure the work is completed correctly and on schedule.

The current economy can also mean that homeowners may now be planning to stay in their current homes longer, meaning that regular maintenance is even more important.

“When homeowners become members of the Brightleaf Customer Care program, they enjoy the peace of mind knowing that the care of their home is in expert hands,” said Cory Malloy. “Just like your car or yard, your home requires regular maintenance to ensure it stays in tip top form and that small items don’t turn into major problems. We can help homeowners prevent costly disasters from occurring.”

The Brightleaf Customer Care concept was developed by Judy Malloy and son Cory. Bernie and Judy Malloy are owners of Brightleaf Development Company along with their sons Cory and Shane. After completing more than 30 estate homes in the prestigious Governors Club in Chapel Hill, the Cary-based builder determined that there was widespread demand for this type of service.  Following the successful introduction of Brightleaf Customer Care to Governors Club residents, the company decided to offer the program to homeowners in other parts of the Triangle.
