It’s officially freeze season. Is your house ready? 🏔️❄️
The hard freeze is the one that cracks pipes. Do these 5 things this weekend:
1️⃣ Blow out the sprinklers before the lines freeze
2️⃣ Unhook hoses and cover the spigots so nothing bursts inside the wall
3️⃣ Clear the gutters once the maples and pines finish dropping
4️⃣ Swap the furnace filter and book a tune-up before everyone else does
5️⃣ Test your smoke and CO detectors now that the heat is on
Thinking about selling in the spring? A burst pipe or a water stain from a clogged gutter is exactly what a buyer’s inspector finds. Ten minutes now saves you a repair request later.
