Getting Ready for Winter

It’s August and there is still plenty of summer left.  I know this, but it’s also the time of year that we start to get ready for winter.

Next week, we are having our trees trimmed.  I want to lower dead limbs trimmed, so as not to come down with a winter storm. Also During this month, it’s time to inspect your home to get those last minute projects in before the cold weather sets in.  One of the things on our list is to replace our front door.  After that, it’s time to get the furnace cleaned before we need heat.

In the fall, it will be time to clean the gutters and make sure the snow blower is ready.

Preparing now and maintaining your home and equipment will save you money in the long run.

Enjoy the rest of the summer
