Home Fall Maintenance and Winter Preparation

fall home maintenance and winter preparationThe autumn season brings lower temperatures and changing colors. It is the precedent to family reunions, holiday food and new resolutions. With good tidings comes harsher weather and it is important to prepare your home exterior in order to survive the peak of winter conditions. Be sure to check for these home fall maintenance preps and improvements — they'll make it easier to live comfortably throughout the wintry season.

Peeling Paint indicates that the film on the paint is failing and is no longer protecting your house. The primary reason exterior paint peels is because of water vapor. As the dry fall months succeed the humid spring and summer seasons, water vapor may condense underneath the primer. This results in a crack or lifting of the surface, which allows even more water vapor to get under the primer. It is best to repaint the exterior of your home during lower humidity and lower temperatures, but not yet cold temperatures.

The best paint products and quality craftsmanship are used to ensure protection as well as aesthetics. Along with the exterior paint job, we also provide re-caulking of all doors, windows, corner boards, siding butt joints and nail holes.

LeafX Gutter Protection from EXOVATIONS

LeafX gutter protection, for no clogs and no cleaning.

Clogged gutters are the primary cause of ice dams, or the hump of ice that forms at the edge of the roof. The seams of a gutter are especially prone to dings and dents that cause build-up. Be sure to clean out any fallen leaves, and inspect for broken joints or brackets. This will prevent water damage to the foundation and roof.

Whether your preparation for winter involves a full replacement of gutters or just gutter protection, EXOVATIONS offers both. We have the most advanced gutter protection system available which completely prevents clogs as well as the chore of cleaning the gutters. Our seamless gutters significantly reduces the risk of rust, leaks and build-up.

Replacing windows is a quality way to not only stop the draft from leaking through the windows, but also cut down on the heating bill. Drafts are caused by aged windows that are no longer adequately sealed, resulting in air conditioning and heat to leak out. Ultimately, you can end up with an electric bill that has sky-rocketed past your understanding.

With EXOVATIONS, replacing your home's windows can significantly increase your home's energy efficiency. We can provide you with a full line of replacement windows that improve your home's climate comfort, and also significantly reduce the time and effort required to maintain them.

Inspecting your roof is necessary prior to harsh winter conditions. In general, make sure the roof is in working shape. Indicators of issues include broken or loose shingles, leaks or a weak ceiling. Weather and climate conditions, whether hot or cold, can wreak destruction on your first line of defense.
