Tips to get your house ready for the Fall
1. Clean your gutters - You may have to do this several times, but clogged gutters can cause a myriad of problems for your home.  A clogged gutter may cause ice dams to form, and leaks from your gutters can cause wall or foundation issues.  Make sure to inspect joints, and put in gutter guards if needed.

2. Seal those cracks - Use good quality caulk to seal up your windows and doors.  This will help your energy bill by preventing heat from escaping, and is probably the least expensive maintenance item. While you are doing the sealing, check your walls/windows/doors for cracks and other damage.  If you see any, give us a call to take a look!

3. Inspect your Fireplace - Check for blockages and check that the damper is working correctly.  If you see cracks or a leaning chimney, we can take a look at that for you.

4. Inspect your Roof - or better yet, have us come out to do a free inspection. Look to see if shingles are curling, cracking or buckling.  Check all flashings around pipes and chimneys.  If you have any leaks or gaps, rain will always find a way in.

5. Check your outside water spigots and disconnect any hoses. - Make sure all pipes are free of water. If you don't drain the water found in them, you can have a pipe develop a leak and flood your home when spring comes.

6. Check your driveway and other concrete services for cracks. - Seal them now before the snow comes this winter.  If you have extensive cracking or other issues with your concrete, give us a call to take a look at your options!

7. Check your attic for proper insulation - and look at your vents as well. Pests love to congregate in homes when the weather outside gets colder, and any attic openings can provide a way in.  Having proper insulation will ensure your energy bills stay low.  If you would like a home energy audit, we can help you.

Remember, fall is the time to take care of your home before the harsh weather, snow, and ice are here. Our Missouri renovation company hopes that these tips are helpful!
