With appkeep, your house has a maintenance plan: what needs doing, what it costs over the years, and which decisions can wait.
It’s for the owner of the house they live in — in Finland, the Netherlands, or Sweden for now. The rest of the EU is next, and the rest of the world after that.
You don’t know if it’s a €200 fix or a €4 000 replacement. You’ve Googled symptoms, got three open tabs and no clearer answer.
You sort it. You check whether the boiler’s age makes this a repair year or a replacement year. You see what a fair contractor brief looks like.
The first question to ask the contractor. A note in the home’s record so next time something stops, you don’t start from zero.
Maintained, not abandoned. The methodology stays current as standards change. Your home’s record builds with every season you use it.
The method is public: the guides and the mandate calculator are free to anyone. The €37 a year is the system that runs it on your house: the multi-year plan, the record, and the decisions as they come.
pay → set up your house → build your plan
A mandate is the cap a property manager hands a contractor: hours, local trade rate, call-out, materials. They proceed within it. If the cost will exceed it, they stop and explain why in writing before continuing.
