Do you have spring fever?
Even though Georgia winters are mild by comparison, it’s easy to see why you would be ready for the seasons to change this year. Between a pandemic and wet, dreary days, we all want something to look forward to.
Spring is also the time many of us start planning new projects. For you, that might mean deciding how you want to change up your home’s landscaping for the new season. Or you might research parks in the area to (finally) get outside.
Most of us enjoy changing the seasons, but there are always hazards that can come along with it, too. Spring thunderstorms can cause a headache for many homeowners.
The good news is that are many ways you can ensure your home is ready to withstand the weather, and it doesn’t take as long as you might think.
Many of the projects that will help you protect your home can be completed over a long weekend. They’re well worth the time you’ll invest.
Are These Projects on Your To-Do List?
Here are some home improvement projects that need to be a priority:
Don’t let tree branches threaten your roof. Limbs and branches hanging over your home can be hazardous. Winds can bring them down and cause damage. You can prevent this from happening by cutting them down.
Spend time cleaning your gutters. Clean gutters allow water to move around your home the correct way. Don’t let water backup up your home and cause water damage.
Check your roof for leaks and damage. Be sure your roof doesn’t have any missing shingles. You don’t want to end up in a situation where you find out your home has a leaky roof during a thunderstorm.
If a fire, flood or any other cause damage to your home, you can always count on us for restoration assistance. We are available 24⁄7 in the event of an emergency. Contact us at any time to learn more about our restoration services and how we can help you.
