Top 5 Maintenance Tips for Your New Home

Caulk Your Windows

By caulking around your windows and doors, it can help you cut down on cooling and heating bills by preventing air leaks during the warmer and cooler months.

Clean Your Gutters

This is another way to keep your home moisture-free. Your gutters help to direct water away from your home. By keeping them clean, water can flow directly off your roof and away from your siding.

Check Your HVAC Filters

HVAC filters are a pivotal part of keeping your heating & cooling systems function at their best by preventing dust and debris from the airflow. It is best practice to change them every 6 months to ensure proper air quality.

Check Your Smoke Detectors

Smoke detectors are your first safety measure in keeping your family safe from a fire. To keep your home and family safe, make sure that they are well maintained and tested every month.

Touch Up Your Exterior Paint

If there are peels or chips in your paint, give it a touch up. Exterior paint also acts as a moisture barrier for your home. For a better coat of paint, a power wash is recommended to ensure no debris is underneath your coat of paint.
