Your car has a service history. Your home should too

Nobody buys a used car without asking for its service history, yet the largest purchase most people make typically arrives with a carrier bag of paperwork and a shrug.

What a home service history records

• Each project carried out on the property, with dates and who did the work
• The assets the home is made of: boiler, roof, windows, wiring, solar, EV charger
• Warranty positions and expiry dates
• Servicing history and upcoming service dates
• The certificates and approvals that evidence the work

Why it pays off

Maintenance becomes planned rather than reactive, warranty claims are straightforward because the paperwork exists, and when you sell, the improvement history is already assembled instead of reconstructed under time pressure.

Discussion across government and industry continues to point toward digital property logbooks and better property information at the point of sale. Keeping an owner-controlled record now is simply good housekeeping, whatever standard eventually emerges.

Project Passport keeps these records together in one permanent digital record of your property, so the drawings, approvals, certificates, warranties and photographs of every project stay findable years after the work finishes. It is an independent record-keeping platform: it complements, and does not replace, Building Control, HM Land Registry, conveyancers or professional advice.
