Autumn Home Checklist

1. WINDOWS & DOORS facebook twitter
The only good draft in your house this fall is the one that kicks off your fantasy football and hockey seasons! Seal leaky windows and doors with spray foam, caulk or weather stripping.
2. ROOF:
At least once or twice a year, check you roof or hire a professional to do so, especially after extreme
weather events. facebook twitter
4. SMOKE DETECTOR:
Clocks aren't the only wall hangings worth adjusting during day-light savings time. Make sure you check your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and replace
their batteries as needed. facebook twitter
3. GUTTERS:
Preventing eavestrough overflow is important; just make sure you always practice ladder safety when cleaning out fall leaves (or hire a
professional). facebook twitter
5. ENERGY:
When temperatures fall, consider investing in a programmable thermostat to save energy and
money while staying warm. facebook twitter
6. HEALTHY LAWN:
Once leaves start falling, keep your soil healthy by mulching them with a mower. One pass every four days should do the trick. Or, be sure to rake leaves. Leaves can kill your grass
if left on the ground for a prolonged period of time. facebook twitter
facebook twitter
7. FIREPLACE:
The start of fall means fireside stories are just around the corner. Check your chimney and have it swept when 1/8-inch (3mm) of sooty buildup is present.
facebook twitter
8. FIREWOOD:
Dry firewood should be stored at least 4-5 metres from your home. Large amounts of wood should not be stored in the home due to the risk of termite infestation.
facebook twitter
9. LAWN EQUIPMENT:
Once summer ends, your lawn equipment will probably go into hibernation all winter – so make sure it's stored properly. Empty unused fuel from lawnmowers to prevent sediment buildup.
