Madison Home Inspections

With summer coming to an end (already?!) it’s time to start preparing for the cold weather! Here’s your Fall Home Maintenance Checklist. We advise taking care of these tasks now, with the mild weather still hanging around, rather than later when snow and ice may decrease visibility and accessibility. Have you ever had a crazy winter crisis? Let us know in the comments below!

This is a shot from a recent home inspection we did. You can see the garage door opener is plugged into an extension cord. Remember friends, extension cords are not meant to be used long term. They are meant to be used as a temporary solution! Over time an extension cord can deteriorate and possibly become a fire hazard if used incorrectly. Stay safe!

Did you make a new years resolution this year?⁣
⁣
By far the most common New Year's Resolution relates to 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 and 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬. Which is great!⁣
But what about the health and wellness of your 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞?⁣
Have you ever included your home in your resolution?⁣
