Fall Home Checklist
No, Game of Thrones hasn't returned - that's sometime in 2019. And it's not truly fall yet - that's September 22 - but it is close enough to think about the simple fall maintenance items you can check off to protect your home and save money in the long run.
Get Your Head in the Gutter
Or pay someone to do it. Either way, don't neglect your gutters this fall. Whether you get ahead before the leaves fall and have mesh guards installed or if you do an annual clean out after the leaves are done. Make you won't have any drainage issues as frozen gutters can be costly. Also, ideally make sure all downspouts run about 10 ft away from your foundation.
Semi-annual HVAC Inspection
Twice a year it's good to have your HVAC system inspected and maintained, though you can get away with doing it once if you want to save a few bucks. If you haven't had your heating system checked in a while, do it before you start running it a lot this winter. This is usually under $100.
Inspect Your Roof
Take a step back in the yard and survey your roof. Look for rusty exposed metal, dislodged or missing shingles, tears, moss, etc. You'll have water sitting on top of your house for weeks at a time this winter. If there's a hole, it will find its way in and start causing damage.
Check the Chimney
This one is important. Every year or every 2 years, you should really have your chimney cleaned and inspected. A failing or clogged chimney could be incredibly dangerous. This inspection should also cost less than $100.
Winterize Early
Typically you won't use your outdoor faucets very much in the fall, so disconnect the hoses, drain them both, and shut them off before the weather gets cold. It's always nice to have some winterization done early. The same goes for your irrigation system.

A Quick Spring Checklist
Maintenance makes a difference! As much of a pain as it can be at times, some small maintenance items can save you quite a bit of money. Here are five things to accomplish this spring:
Get your HVAC serviced.
HVAC repairs can get expensive quick so having your system cleaned and serviced yearly before you run the A/C all summer can make a difference! Usually this will only run you about $75-100. At the VERY LEAST make sure you change the filter and clean your condenser. Hose it off, use a shop-vac to clean out the coils, and make sure there isn't any dirt or plants up against it. These things will trap moisture and cause the unit to deteriorate.
Clean your window weep holes.
What's a weep hole? At the base of your window on the outside, you'll see small holes or slits (like this). Make sure they are clear, use a small pick to clean them out if necessary. These weep holes allow your window to drain any water that may have seeped in which could lead to rotting if it stays trapped.
Seal cracks and check for rotted wood.
After the winter your home and driveway has likely suffered some frost damage. Take a walk around with an acrylic caulking gun and reseal any cracks or gaps you may see on the outside of your home. And if any of the wood appears to be rotten then it would be good to replace it. Also, check your driveway... Have any major cracks sealed to prevent further deterioration. No one wants to repave their driveway if they don't have to!
Clean your dryer vents!
These last two items are important safety concerns. Make sure to clean out your dryer vents both from the inside and outside of your home. You'll be surprised how much lint makes it passed your filter and a clog can lead to a greatly increased risk of fire.
Test your smoke & CO detectors!
We say this a lot, but it can not be stressed enough! Make sure your detectors work, have fresh batteries, and are not expired. A small chore like this can quite literally save your life. A good rule of thumb is to do this every time you change the clocks back or forward.
