Making Home Maintenance A Routine

March 18, 2019

“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” – Benjamin Franklin

And this couldn’t be more true when it comes to caring for your home.

Most homeowners aren’t concerned with home maintenance until there is a problem, especially if the home is new or recently renovated.

However, every home needs proper routine maintenance that may seem to be a small hassle at the time, but it will avoid the larger frustrations – and costs – down the road.

Let me share three tips with you to help protect your investment for the years to come:

 

  1. Inspect and clean areas of your home that are prone to mold, bacteria and other harmful residue build up such as vents, ducts, pipes, drains and water heater.
  2. Inspect your roof at least twice a year for any areas missing material or signs of leaks such as water buildup (especially after major storms.)
  3. Hire professionals for yearly maintenance of major appliances such as your refrigerator, air conditioner and water heater, and also your pool.

 

Owning a home is a major responsibility – and not just financially. It requires routine checkups and maintenance to keep your house in tip-top shape so that you and your family can live comfortably.

I can help you create a home maintenance checklist that is customized to your specific home that can protect you and your loved ones. I also have a trusted network of partners that specialize in several areas for home maintenance and repairs.
