These are our top home winterization tips for 2022-2023
- Protect outdoor faucets from freezing by draining the water and closing off the supply valve that supplies the outdoor spigot.
- Inspect chimneys for problems with masonry and consider having it professionally cleaned.
- Inspect caulk around windows and repair areas that may have become brittle, cracked, or pulled away from the surface.
- Fall is also an ideal time to fertilize the lawn. The roots will absorb the fertilizer and store up nutrients through the winter.
- Clean out gutters and remove any obstructions in water drainage
- Make sure your home’s fire extinguisher is ready in case of an emergency.
