Body Corporate Maintenance Melbourne

Strata and body corporate committees carry ongoing responsibility for maintaining common-property surfaces to a standard that protects the investment of all lot owners and satisfies the expectations of residents and tenants. Overflowing gutters after autumn leaf drop, mossy roofs visible from common areas, grimy entrance glazing, and pressure-stained driveways are all noticed immediately — yet coordinating multiple separate trades for the same building wastes committee time, inflates maintenance expenditure, and creates documentation gaps that complicate AGM reporting.

The Squeegee Squad provides fully bundled exterior maintenance for body corporate and strata properties across Melbourne. From gutter vacuuming and downpipe clearing before winter through to roof moss treatment, window cleaning for common-area glazing, pressure washing of driveway and access surfaces, and softwashing on rendered facades, we deliver a single accountable service provider, photographic completion records from every visit, and the documentation your strata manager needs for maintenance reports, AGM presentations, and insurance compliance files.

We work with owners corporations of all sizes — from boutique six-lot villa units through to large multi-building complexes with commercial ground floors. Most strata clients begin with a comprehensive condition-reset visit to establish a cleaned baseline and then move to a scheduled programme of seasonal gutter clears, biannual window and facade work, and an annual roof treatment. This approach keeps ongoing maintenance costs manageable and avoids the expensive remediation work that deferred maintenance accelerates.

Body corporate maintenance work on common property must satisfy the insurance requirements set by the owners corporation, the building's structural warranty obligations, and in some cases the planning-permit conditions that govern the strata development. The Squeegee Squad carries public liability insurance appropriate for residential common-property work, provides SWMS for any elevated or heights-adjacent cleaning, and supplies certificates of currency on request for strata management compliance files. We are familiar with the documentation expectations of major Melbourne strata management firms and produce completion records in formats consistent with standard AGM maintenance reporting requirements.

Working at residential strata properties requires resident consideration that commercial building work does not always demand. We notify strata managers of scheduled visit dates, observe posted-notice requirements where specified by the owners corporation, operate within approved working hours, and coordinate with resident-facing strata managers on access to basement garages, rooftop plant rooms, or shared amenity areas. We never commence common-property work without a confirmed strata manager or committee contact as the responsible party for access authority and scope approval.
