Preparing for the Fall Season

Hello Neighbor,

 

Here’s a brief list of some important outside tasks that you should do to prepare your home for the fall season:

 

– Cool, dry fall days are a great time to paint the exterior of your home.

– Put raked leaves and other yard wastes in a compost bin and keep these materials out of landfills.
Don’t forget to add any organic materials cleaned out of your gutters, too.

– Before rough winter weather sets in, remove screens from windows and doors and put up storm windows. Strong winds, heavy rains and extreme cold can all damage your screens and ordinary windows. Check caulking around windows and do touch ups to conserve energy and natural resources. For door leaks around the bottom of the door, you can put on a new door sweep. Check double paned units for signs of seal failure (fogging between the glass).
