It can help break down your energy bills, improve the efficiency and the life of your home as well as increase the overall safety of your property for you and your loved ones. Below are a few tips to get your home summer-ready.

HERE ARE 4 THINGS YOU MUST DO FOR YOUR HOME THIS SUMMER:


Check Drains And Gutters

Although this is one of the last items people do when getting their home ready for the summer, it is one of the very things tasks you should start to do. Debris such as mud and leaves can clog the drain and once it piles up, it can lead to huge problems and leaks that could occur within the roof and walls of your home. Clearing this right away reduces the risk of any water damage that could happen later so it’s why it should be one of the first things you do.

While you’re clearing away all the garbage, look at your drains to see if the pipes are also leading the water away from your home. Have trenches dug and underground pipes installed to gt the roof water away from your property. It should also ensure that your landscaping is slanted away as well.

Hire Professionals To Look Into Your Roof

Inspect Your Yard

When preparing your home for summer keep in mind that your yard has always taken a beating after the chilly months. Look into checking out if you have any rotting trees or try to cure the ones that are needing to be saved. You can also add a few decorations to refresh your space including new flowers that go along the length of your driveway, hang potted plants near your door stoop, or figuring out ways to keep your grass looking green and plush throughout the sticky summer.

Look Into New Deck and Patio Upkeep

Pavers, decks, and driveways all need maintenance from time to time. Fixing any broken joins or needing sealing with stonework can be prevented. Check on your deck and any handrails that need staining or sealant to protect them from splintering, decay, or insect damage. Once those are repaired, give your space a new refresh by adding new deck furniture, adding an outdoor rug, and various plush pillows for a comfortable feel for you and guests. 

Your home should be your pride and joy and having it ready for a new season is worth doing. Having properly insulated windows, proper plumbing, and a well-functioning HVAC system can help lower your utility costs during the hot months as well as keep you comfortable and still enjoying your home whether you are outside or inside. Do your best to do these items before the weather gets extremely hot and you need to spend more time indoors than outdoors. Hire a professional should you have any questions, concerns, or just need the help to make sure projects are done correctly.

    This is when I’m glad I’m not a homeowner yet- so many tasks to do that I would forget about! And don’t forget about your dryer vent! That was just done in my apartment complex a few weeks ago, and the amount of lint and dust that came out of it was insane! Thanks for sharing
