Constant maintenance? What is going wrong with your place? I don't think it's supposed to be like that.

Constant maintenance? What is going wrong with your place? I don't think it's supposed to be like that.
- notacoward 10y agoNothing's going on with my place that doesn't go on at every place more than a few years old. Some day everyone's going to need a new roof or siding, new furnace or water heater. They're going to deal with pests (mice, ants) and fallen trees/limbs and drainage issues. Even when there's nothing wrong you have to mow lawns, rake leaves, shovel snow, clean gutters, etc. - or pay even more to have someone else do it. In our case the biggest single item was damage from ice dams, just like half of my friends and neighbors. This is all routine stuff, but it sucks up a lot of time and energy.
