the bottom line is that proper maintenance of your home will save you thousands of dollars in repairs.
Spring time is a great time to maintain the exterior of your home here are a few things to keep in mind.
- Landscape should all be kept cut back off the home.
- You should have your home pressure washed at least once a year.
- You should have the sealants on your windows and doors checked, if it is starting to get brittle and crack you need to have it renewed.
- Stucco cracks need to be sealed and the repairs touched up. DO NOT USE CAULK to fill stucco cracks. It will leave shiny lines that stand out on the side of your home, and caulk will not perform well.
- Flashing, gutters, downspouts are all designed to manage large amounts of water coming off the roof, these items are often overlooked. However if they are not maintained and adjusted properly they can create thousands of dollars of damage.
- It may be time for a paint job... Stucco needs quality paint and water proof coatings to perform well.
