What This Is

Your home, professionally
looked after. Every year.

Shield Essential is not a warranty. It's not a one-time checkup. It's an ongoing advisory relationship — the same structured, systematic approach used in commercial asset management, applied to your home.

Without Shield Essential

Reactive & Uncertain

No score. No forecast. No plan. You find out what your home needs when something fails — at the worst possible time, at emergency pricing, with no context for what comes next.

With Shield Essential

Planned & Informed

Annual review. Updated Home Health Score. 10-year capital forecast. Seasonal guidance. And someone who knows your home — year after year.

What's Included

Five deliverables.
One annual investment.

Everything your home needs to stay ahead of what's coming.

01

Annual Home Health Review

75–90 minute on-site walkthrough every year. Every major system assessed — roof, HVAC, plumbing, electrical, structure, interior. Documented in full.

02

Home Health Score (0–100)

Your home's condition expressed as a single number. Updated at every annual review so you can track improvement over time. Broken down by category so you know exactly where your score comes from.

03

Written Report + 10-Year Capital Forecast

Full findings delivered within 48 hours of your review. Prioritized action list plus a forward-looking 10-year capital expense projection — so you can budget for what's coming, not react to what fails.

04

Seasonal Maintenance Guidance

Quarterly guidance tailored to your specific home and its systems. Not a generic checklist — specific to what your home needs, when it needs it.

05

Priority Access + 10% Member Discount

Members get priority scheduling through our trusted repair partner, Garrison Home Service. When something comes up, you're not waiting weeks. Plus 10% off all repair work up to $500 per year.

The Differentiator

See the next 10 years
before they arrive.

Every Shield Essential report includes a 10-year capital expense forecast. Know what your roof, HVAC, water heater, and exterior will need — and when — before any of it becomes a crisis.

A planned replacement is a budget line. An emergency replacement is a financial crisis. The difference is knowing what's coming.
