Keeping Your Home in Ship Shape
Things to check on a regular basis...
Electrical Wiring- Fix broken plugs or switches. When updating your electrical be sure to check with your city to see what permits are necessary.
Roof- Do a visual inspection of your own twice a year. Repair damaged tiles/shingles as they arise and cut back tree limbs that grow near the roof or pose a threat.
Plumbing- Fix dripping faucets, tighten toilet bolts and check for moisture under sinks to avoid mold/mildew and structural damage from water.
Overall upkeep- Check the caulking around the doors and window that can compromise the efficiency of your heating and cooling systems. Walk around your home with a scrutinizing eye looking for cracking or peeling paint, broken fixtures (inside or out) or broken appliances.
Keeping up with items around your home will not only keep your homes value but make it more pleasing f0r you while you live there.
