Why your home needs vitals.

You've been the doctor, the record-keeper, and the emergency room for your home — all at once. That's not a personal failure. It's a gap nobody ever filled.

Homeowner discovering a ceiling water stain

Everything else in your life is watched over.

Once a year someone checks your numbers and you leave knowing where you stand. Your car gets the little light and a mechanic who remembers it. Even your money has an app that nags you.

Your homeNobody.

The most expensive thing you own — where you sleep, raise your kids, and store every memory — is the only one with no one watching its health.

"Nobody. You. At 9pm. After the ceiling stain shows up."

Your home has never been cared for. Only reacted to.

How it works today
  • Something breaks — usually at the worst time
  • Scramble to find anyone available
  • Pay whatever the emergency costs
  • No record, no history, no one who knows the house
  • Forget about it — until the next thing breaks
How care works
  • Every component checked before it fails
  • One person who knows your home
  • Fixes planned and budgeted on your terms
  • Every visit logged — a real health record
  • A score you can check anytime

The left column isn't care. It's damage control.

The problems are already there. You just can't see them.

86%of home inspections turn up something that needs fixing — in a survey of roughly 1,000 homebuyers (Porch). Not bad homes. Normal homes, quietly accumulating issues no one is watching.

The water heater rusting for two years. The roof shedding granules since the last big storm. None of it is sudden — it just looks sudden the day it fails.

What's missing isn't effort. It's visibility — a way to see your home's condition the way a blood panel shows your health, before the symptoms show up.

That's what a Home Health Score is for.

One number, 1–100, for how your home is actually doing — with 13+ components individually rated underneath it. It turns "I think the house is... fine?" into "We're at 87. Plumbing's a 78 — I'll plan for that next year."

Guessing becomes knowing. That's the whole idea.

Next: what's actually inside the number?

The 13 components, the inventory we collect, and who does the scoring.
