💡 Tips For Homeowners
Fall Maintenance Checklist: Prep Your Home Before Winter Hits
North Georgia’s chilly season is right around the corner, and a little prep now can save you from headaches later. We’ve gathered a few quick wins to keep your home cozy, safe, and efficient all winter long.
1. Protect Outdoor Plumbing
Frozen pipes can lead to costly repairs.
Disconnect and drain garden hoses
Shut off exterior water valves and open faucets to release leftover water
Wrap exposed pipes in foam insulation, especially in garages or crawl spaces
2. Check Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors
Heating systems work overtime in winter, so safety checks matter.
Test each detector using the “test” button
Replace batteries every six months
Swap out any unit older than 10 years
3. Seal the Drafts
Walk around your home with your hand near doors and windows. Feel a chill? Add weatherstripping or caulk to keep warm air in and cold air out.
4. Service Your Furnace
A quick tune-up now keeps your home warm and your energy bills lower.
Schedule a professional inspection before the first freeze
Change filters every 1 to 3 months
Listen for odd noises or smells that could signal trouble
Spend a couple of hours this weekend and avoid costly repairs all winter. We love helping our neighbors keep their homes in top shape for the season ahead.
