How it works

1. Setup: pick Own or Rent and answer a few Yes / No questions (heating type, central AC, water heater, yard and small engines, gutters, basement, sump pump, fireplace, garage door opener, septic, well). Matching tasks switch on or off.
2. Schedule: type roughly when you last did each task. Next due date, days left and status (On track, Upcoming, Due soon, Overdue, or Not started for jobs you haven't logged yet) fill in by themselves. Tap + Calendar to save a reminder in Google Calendar.
3. Quick Log: did a job? Add one row from your phone (date, task, cost). The schedule rolls forward and the Dashboard updates.

The Dashboard

• 6 live tiles: overdue, due in 30 days, jobs logged this year, spent this year, next filter change, Lights Out kit readiness
• Next 10 jobs, overdue first, each with a calendar link
• 5 charts: spend by category, spend by year, task status, coming due in the next 90 days, jobs logged per month
• At a glance: last alarm test, warranties ending in 90 days, kit items expiring, next pro visit, water heater age
• Neutral colors on purpose: overdue just means it's time

Good to know

• This is an organizer with general guidance, not repair instructions or professional, legal or insurance advice. Follow your owner's manuals and local codes, and hire a licensed pro for gas, electrical, roof and chimney work.

• Checklists cite public sources: Ready.gov, CDC, FoodSafety.gov, American Red Cross, ENERGY STAR, Ohio State University Extension, National Center for Healthy Housing, Habitat for Humanity.
• Reminders come from the calendar events you save. The spreadsheet itself does not send alerts.
• Fillable PDFs: type and save in free Adobe Acrobat Reader or Preview (Mac). Some web-browser PDF viewers don't keep what you type.
• The file includes sample entries so you can see it working; START HERE lists exactly which cells to clear.
