Why facility managers come to us
Reactive maintenance is costing more than the work itself.
The labour is the smallest part. The bigger cost is the missing cadence, the absent documentation, the procurement friction of juggling trades, and the inability to show proactive care to regulators, insurers and boards.
01
Too many trades, too many invoices
One trade for painting, another for repairs, a third for inspections. Different paperwork, different standards. Reconciling it all takes longer than the work.
02
Reporting that is not really reporting
Photos forwarded by text, emails without context, no consistent record. Nothing you could file with a regulator or hand to an insurer if you needed to.
03
Reactive cycle, no program
You only hear about issues when something breaks. No cadence catching wear before it becomes failure, and no quarterly view across sites.
What we cover
Three things sit at the centre of every TFD program.
Those problems share one cause, maintenance run as callouts instead of a program. TFD answers each with three things at the centre, with specialist trades behind the program when sites need them. The focus is the rhythm and the record, not the toolkit.
PILLAR 01
General maintenance
The everyday upkeep that keeps sites running cleanly and safely between scheduled visits.
✓ Wear and tear repairs
✓ Painting touch-ups
✓ Fixtures and fittings
✓ Doors, locks, hardware
✓ Surfaces and finishes
✓ Site presentation
PILLAR 02
Compliance support
The credentials and records that regulators, insurers and boards will ask for.
✓ WWCC-cleared technicians
✓ Public liability cover
✓ Safe practice on sensitive sites
✓ Dated and signed records
✓ Certificates available on request
✓ Records filed by site
PILLAR 03
Scheduled inspections
The cadence that catches issues early and replaces reactive callouts with predictable programs.
Alongside the ongoing preventative maintenance program, TFD plans and delivers the larger scheduled works your sites need, coordinated by the same single point of contact and documented to the same standard.
One partner for the day-to-day program and the larger projects, across every site in your portfolio.
✓ Complete centre repaints
✓ Carpentry works
✓ Mould remediation
✓ Renovations and refurbishments
✓ Other planned maintenance projects
What you receive
Documentation that doubles as evidence.
Every site visit ends with a branded PDF report, not a forwarded job-management email. The same record serves your operations team and your compliance file.
01
Branded inspection report
After every visit. Site reference, date, technician name, scope completed, items flagged, recommended next visit. Filed predictably by site.
02
Before-and-after photography
Captioned, dated, framed consistently. Evidence you can hand to a regulator or insurer without further explanation.
03
Quarterly portfolio summary
Across multi-site programs. Every site visited, work completed, recommendations and trend lines, in one document.
How it works
How a program with TFD starts.
From first conversation to first scheduled visit, the path is short and the commitment is graduated. The site walk is no-obligation.
01
Request a site walk
A short conversation followed by a site visit at a time that suits your operations.
02
Program proposed
A site-by-site cadence, scope and reporting standard, scoped and priced per site, presented in writing.
03
Scheduled servicing begins
First visit booked into the calendar, the reporting cadence locked in, and your program underway.
04
Ongoing program
Visits run on the agreed cadence, issues flagged before they escalate, and one point of contact throughout.
Why TFD
Six reasons facility managers choose TFD.
01
Single point of contact
One person and one invoice across every trade and every site, with the same reporting format and operating standard everywhere TFD works.
02
Trusted on sensitive sites
WWCC-cleared technicians, scheduling that works around your operations, and photography that never includes children or residents. The standard childcare, aged care and schools require.
03
Preventative, not reactive
Scheduled servicing on a known cadence. Issues caught early, callouts replaced by programs, the calendar always moving forward.
04
Evidence on every visit
The paper trail to back the work, ready for regulators, insurers and boards, without you chasing for it.
05
Direct and responsive
A boutique operation, so the person who walks your sites runs the program and answers the phone. Same-day responses, no call centre, no handoffs.
06
After-hours and kid-safe scheduling
Disruptive work is scheduled outside operating hours by default, so sites with children or clients on site keep running. Scheduling flexes around your operations.
In practice
What a TFD program looks like in practice.
Every client gets the same standard, whatever the sector. Mayfield Early Education is one example. Across their childcare sites, every visit is scheduled, documented and reported the same way.
“
What really sets TFD apart is their proactive approach. Their preventative maintenance checklists make everything clear and easy to manage, helping us stay ahead of potential issues before they escalate.
Troy is responsive, adaptable, and genuinely invested in delivering great results. He and his team are professional, respectful, and always mindful of working safely and efficiently within childcare environments.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend TFD to any childcare provider looking for a reliable, forward-thinking maintenance partner.
