Protecting your home with Preventative Maintenance
Regular maintenance can help keep your home safe and minimize the possibility
of costly future repairs. Here are some preventative measures you can take
to keep your home in good condition year-round. Some suggestions may require
the assistance of a professional:
Monthly Maintenance
Develop a monthly routine for checking various components and mechanical
systems throughout your home.
Examine doors and windows for proper operation and accessibility.
Inspect heating, ventilation, air-conditioning and water heater units
for proper and efficient operation.
Check fire extinguishers for proper operation.
Inspect all main circuit breaker or electrical panels and all sub
panels.
Check faucets and drains for proper water flow as well as dripping and
drainage of all sinks, showers and bathtubs.
Seasonal Exterior Maintenance
Clean all gutters and downspouts.
Clean all leaves and other debris from window wells,
air-conditioning units and the foundation.
Have your chimney cleaned before each heating season and inspect the
chimney
top and its structure.
Check all porches, railings and walkways for hazards or
deterioration.
Check all exterior painting for peeling and cracking, which may
result from potential water leaks or moisture problems.
