Commercial Body Corporate Maintenance: A Complete Guide by Oceans Homes

Maintaining commercial properties is no small task. From high-rise apartment buildings to retail complexes, the demand for quality, professional maintenance is critical to ensuring longevity, safety, and tenant satisfaction. For property owners, strata managers, and body corporates in Australia, finding a reliable and experienced maintenance partner is key. Oceans Homes is proud to be that trusted partner.

With years of experience in Commercial Body Corporate Maintenance, we understand the specific needs of commercial properties and offer tailored solutions that ensure your building always looks and performs its best.

What is Commercial Body Corporate Maintenance?

Body Corporate Maintenance refers to the upkeep and repair of common property areas within a commercial or multi-unit building that is governed by a body corporate or strata committee. These spaces can include:

• Entrances and lobbies

• Hallways and corridors

• Elevators and stairwells

• Parking areas

• Gardens and landscapes

• Shared amenities (gyms, pools, etc.)

• Rooftops and facades

• External plumbing, electrical systems, and more

Unlike residential maintenance, commercial body corporate maintenance involves more frequent inspections, adherence to building compliance codes, and servicing larger-scale infrastructure.

At Oceans Homes, our goal is to maintain these areas to the highest standards, reducing risk and enhancing the overall experience for tenants, customers, and visitors alike.

Why Commercial Property Maintenance Matters

1. Preserves Property Value

Well-maintained buildings retain their value over time. Regular maintenance ensures structural integrity, aesthetics, and functionality – critical factors for property valuation.

2. Enhances Safety and Compliance

Ignoring building codes and safety regulations can result in legal liabilities or penalties. Oceans Homes ensures that your commercial property complies with Australian Standards, Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) laws, and local council requirements.

3. Improves Tenant Satisfaction

Happy tenants are long-term tenants. When common areas are clean, safe, and functioning correctly, tenants are more likely to renew leases and refer others.

4. Reduces Long-Term Costs

Proactive maintenance helps avoid major breakdowns and costly repairs. Preventative upkeep through Oceans Homes protects your investment and keeps operating expenses in check.
