Recently, domestic housing market copes with the transition from a supplier-oriented market to a customer-oriented one due to the various customer needs, the growth of the housing supply ratio, and the changes in housing regulations. In the customer-oriented environment, construction companies try to develop the various strategies satisfying the customers for competitiveness.

Especially, quality and performance of apartments by efficient defect management influences increasingly on asset values of apartments. However, many previous studies have been concerned with defect types and frequencies, and management system instead of repair and maintenance costs. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to indentify and analyze items of defect repair and maintenance costs and to assess the impacts of each item on entire defect repair and maintenance costs by factor analysis. The result will contribute to assist construction company in developing an efficient defect repair and maintenance scheme for customer satisfaction. |
