Free printable home maintenance checklists and sheets
Everything on the site that you can print or download, in one place: a checklist for each season, a first-year list for a new home, a house binder, the sheet with your shutoffs and phone numbers, and reminders for your calendar. No sign-up, and nothing to pay.
- 6 PDFs
- 4 print-from-the-page sheets
- No sign-up
Start here: the two pages every home should have
If you print only one thing, make it one of these. When a pipe bursts or the power goes out, nobody wants to go looking for the shutoff or a plumber's number.
Home info sheet
One page for the fridge or a cabinet door: where the shutoffs are, who to call, the filter size and the paint colors. Type it in and print, or print it blank.
Home emergency card
A small card with your shutoffs, emergency numbers and the first thing to do for a gas smell, pouring water or sparks. It prints two to a page: one for the fridge, one for inside the panel door.
Seasonal home maintenance checklists
One page per season, twelve jobs each, with a box to tick. They are written for an ordinary house in a place with real winters; skip what your home does not have. Not sure how a job is done? The online version of each list links every job to its how-to guide.
Spring checklist
Gutters after winter, the roof from the ground, the AC before the first hot day, and the deck and fence.
Summer checklist
Keeping the AC clear and draining, the dryer vent and bathroom fan, caulk and grout, and sealing cracks in concrete.
Fall checklist
A test run of the heat, drafts, gutters after the leaves drop, and hoses and pipes before the first freeze.
Winter checklist
Frozen-pipe prevention, alarms, the furnace filter and the indoor jobs that are easier when you are stuck inside.
For a new home
A new house comes without a manual. These two give you one.
First-year checklist for a new home
What to find, test and check in your first week, first month and first year, starting with the main water shutoff.
House binder
Cover, emergency page, house details, upkeep schedule, a check for every month and a repair log. Print it blank, or let the page fill in what you have saved.
Reminders and job cards
Paper is good for the fridge. These two are for remembering on the day, and for the repair itself.
Calendar reminders
Twelve repeating reminders for your phone or computer calendar, such as the filter every three months and alarm tests every month. Each one links to its guide.
Job card for any repair
Every repair guide has a Print job card button. It gives you a one-page card with the quick answer, the time and cost, the tools and parts list, the steps and room for notes. Take it to the store or set it beside you while you work.
Printing tips
- Paper: everything is laid out for US letter size (8.5 x 11 in) and prints fine in black and white.
- Scale: if the edges get cut off, choose "Fit to page" or "Fit to printable area" in the print window.
- From a phone: PDFs open in your phone's viewer; use Share, then Print. No printer at home? Save the PDF and print it at a library or office supply store.
- Where to keep them: the emergency card inside the electrical panel door and on the fridge, the seasonal checklist where you will see it, and everything else in the house binder.
- Make them last: a clear sheet protector and a dry-erase marker let you reuse one seasonal checklist every year.
Prefer not to print at all? My House tracks the same recurring jobs on your phone and tells you what is due, and the seasonal checklists save your ticks in the browser.

Printables questions
Are these really free?
Yes. There is no sign-up and no email needed. Download or print as many copies as you like for your own home, your rentals or your tenants.
Which one should I print first?
The home info sheet or the emergency card. Knowing where the main water shutoff is, and having the right phone numbers on the fridge, matters more than any checklist.
Do I need a color printer?
No. Everything here is designed to print clearly in black and white on ordinary letter-size paper.
Can I use these for a rental property?
Yes. Landlords often leave the home info sheet and emergency card for tenants, and use the seasonal checklists for their own walk-throughs.
Do the PDFs match the online checklists?
They cover the same jobs. The online versions add pictures, links to each how-to guide and saved progress, so many people print the PDF and keep the page bookmarked.
