Hoffmann Architects has provided rehabilitation master plans and building envelope maintenance programs for many of its clients. These plans evaluate building conditions, identify maintenance, repair and replacement items by priority, and establish budgets and time frames for the rehabilitation work. 

Planning ahead in these ways offers the owner many benefits, such as: 

• creating a financial planning tool for managing large capital expenditures
• establishing and guiding a regular, ongoing program of building maintenance and repair
• providing a planned program for rehabilitation of major building envelope components
• identifying areas for saving costs through combining construction efforts
• establishing a continuity of maintenance and repair documentation that will survive changes in facility management staff
• protecting the integrity of manufacturers' warranties on roofs and other building materials
• and, perhaps most important, eliminating costly repair surprises by catching small problems before they escalate.
