What is an MJOP?
An MJOP, or long-term maintenance plan, is a plan in which a VvE (homeowners' association) or property owner sets out the planned maintenance for the coming years. Painting is often a recurring, substantial item in it.
What an MJOP contains
An MJOP describes what maintenance is needed and when, and what it is expected to cost. This way a VvE knows how much needs to be set aside each year, and major expenses don't come as a surprise.
The role of painting
Exterior painting recurs in an MJOP at fixed intervals, because the woodwork needs to stay protected. By aligning paint maintenance with the MJOP, the work stays planned and costs stay predictable. We think along with you on this and align our planning with the MJOP.
DIY, or better to have it done?
With the right preparation and materials, some parts of VvE painting work can be done yourself, especially for small-scale, easily accessible work. Where it gets trickier — working at height, uncertainty about the condition of the surface, or work that causes more expensive damage if done wrong, such as wood rot or damp problems — it's wise to have a professional painter take a look before you start.
Not sure what's sensible for your situation? During a free, no-obligation assessment we give honest advice: sometimes a touch-up is enough, sometimes a more thorough approach is needed. That advice is free and non-binding, even if you decide to do it yourself.
What affects the cost
Naming a specific figure for VvE painting work is difficult without knowing the situation: the surface area, the condition of the surface, accessibility and the number of coats together determine the price. Poorly maintained work needs more preparation — such as wood repair or extra sanding — and therefore weighs more heavily than the painting itself.
Want to know what this means for your situation? After a free, no-obligation assessment you'll receive a clear, concrete quote, so you don't have to guess based on a generic price per square metre. See also our full breakdown of what determines the cost of painting.
