Handy Around-the-House Tips for Fall
While the weather is showing no signs of cooling off where we are, the Labor Day weekend is headed our way and that means one thing: it’s time for fall! It’s a great time to get a few things done around the house and in the yard, so we’ve put together a great to-do list as the weather starts to cool and the lazy days of summer roll to an end.
Roof Check: If you live in an area prone to snow, now’s the time to check your roof on both your home and garage. A roof in ill-repair can only cause problems as the weight of winter settles in. While you can definitely do it yourself, it pays to have an experienced roofing company come out every three years to check for damage you can’t see.
Sprinkler Systems: As the temperatures cool down, you don’t need to keep your watering levels at your summer settings. Evaporation rates slow, so be sure to double check your settings. You’ll save money on your water bill and do something great to conserve resources at the same time!
Landscaping Services: If you’ve contracted out your yardwork, you might want to look at cutting back to every two weeks for service instead of weekly – that is, if you don’t live in a region with heavy rainfall.
When you’re headed out this weekend, don’t forget to check out our local events calendar for everything that’s going on in the San Juan region. If you see us, say hello – and enjoy the last of those lazy days and make plans to enjoy the upcoming Labor Day weekend!
