Spring Home Maintenance Essentials

As homeowners begin thinking about what projects to tackle to welcome Spring, consider giving your home a check up. Conducting the following home maintenance projects will help your house operate more efficiently and increase its curb appeal:

• Roofs and gutters: The sun’s heat can quickly damage a roof’s shingles. If you haven’t inspected your roof in several years, you should call Premier Home Renovations to assess the condition of your home’s roof. It is also important to clean out leaves and other debris that may have collected in gutters and downspouts. Make sure the gutters are securely attached and haven’t sprung any leaks. Also, check that the downspouts are properly positioned to direct water away from the your home’s foundation.

• Attic: Does your attic smell stale and musty? If you have an attic, check it for leaks coming from the roof. Inspect the underside of the roof and the insulation for any discoloration, deterioration, or dirt stains, as the leaking water might have dried up. Check to make sure that the air flow in your attic is ventilated.  A properly ventilated attic is crucial to help reduce the workload on your air conditioner. Improperly ventilated attics will allow moisture from everyday activities, such as bathing, cooking and household appliances to collect and cling to the underside of the roof.
