Your house has had a nice, easy summer.
Okay… it survived an Oklahoma summer. So maybe “easy” is generous. 😂
But fall is actually a great time to pay attention to the little things around your home before colder weather arrives.
🍂 Open and close your windows. Are any sticking or difficult to lock?
🍂 Check exterior caulking around windows and doors for cracking or gaps.
🍂 Look at weatherstripping around exterior doors.
🍂 Stand near closed windows and doors on a windy day and check for noticeable drafts.
🍂 Make sure exterior doors close and latch properly.
🍂 Walk around the house and look for damaged trim, deteriorating wood or places water could potentially work its way in.
You don't have to be a contractor to notice when something has changed.
Sometimes your house gives you plenty of warning before a little problem becomes a much bigger one.
Fall is a pretty good time to listen. 🏡🍁
