Spring is almost here! For homeowners, it's time for basic repairs that will see your home into the summer and the rest of the year. These tips, many of which are found in the article "Spring Home Maintenance Checklist", will help keep your home in good shape until next year.
- Check the roof. Look for missing, curled shingles or protruding nails. These signs suggest that you should have a professional roofer take a look at your home.
- Check the foundation. Walk slowly around the exterior of the house and look for cracks in the foundation. Have any cracks you do find sealed by a professional.
- Chimney maintenance. If you used your fireplace throughout the winter, have it cleaned and inspected so it will be ready when fall comes again.
- Re-caulk windows. Deteriorated caulk around the windows allows temperature controlled indoor air to leak out into the world. Re-caulk windows to prevent this from occurring.
