Maintenance Log · Free · No account
A home maintenance schedule for Excel, job by job.
The home setup is a schedule only. Each row is a job with how often it is done, when it was last done, when it is next due and an estimated cost. Starting jobs include a boiler service, testing smoke alarms, clearing gutters and bleeding radiators, ready to edit.
- Excel 2016 and later
- Calculations checked in LibreOffice and Google Sheets

- Choose the columnsSwitch on meter readings in miles, kilometres or hours, costs, who does the job, warranty dates and location. Add up to eight columns of your own.
- Download and record jobsDownload the workbook and set how often each job happens and when it was last done. Next due is worked out, and overdue jobs are marked on the Schedule.

Questions
Are my builder entries sent to Due Form?
No. The builder uses them in your browser to make the workbook on your device.
Information is sent to Due Form when you submit a form or use another service described on the How it works page.
How do I record that I did a job?
Type the date in Last done for that job. Next due updates from the ‘How often’ you chose, and the ● or ◐ mark clears once the new date is ahead.
Can I delete the starting jobs I do not need?
Yes. Delete any row you do not want, or make the file with None chosen under Starting jobs to begin with an empty Schedule.
