Preparing For Fall

Fall is officially here (even if it doesn’t fell like it 🙂
Here are a few tips for getting ready for the changing of the seasons and colder weather.

First you’ll want to rake up your leaves as leaving them on a lawn can cause mold and damage the grass. Next clean the gutters as leaves somehow have a magnetic ability to get stuck in them (if you do it yourself make sure to practice good ladder safety!)
Check your windows and doors for leaks – this can you really help keep cold air out. If you find a leaky window, you may want to apply caulk to the frames.
If you have a fireplace and chimney and haven’t had it cleaned lately call a chimney sweep to clean it before you start your first fall fire!
