Unfortunately, the lack of concern towards building maintenance, especially the façade of building lead to difficult and costly maintenance. A majority of maintenance operation for building facade suffers from the lack of maintenance planning, access and routine. Façade is the key element of a building and it influences the comfort, safety and aesthetics of every building. Studies on mosque buildings in Malaysia have highlighted that lack of facade maintainability has caused a large financial impact on the building total maintenance cost. This study aims to investigate the effect of facade maintainability factors on mosque building maintenance operation that will provide information and recommendations that could be taken during design phase. At the same time, theoretical framework for a proposed study is presented in this paper. The establishment of maintainability factors which influence maintenance of building façade helps to intensify knowledge and understanding the importance of maintenance for every building design
