Prepping Your Property for Fall: Your Maintenance Checklist 

Get your property ready for cooling fall weather so you can prevent damage and keep it functioning at its best. 

Maintenance – Prepare for Fall

  • Clean gutters of debris frequently. 
  • Make sure gutters are secure so water doesn’t come down behind them. 
  • Make sure all water drains properly and doesn’t pool. Pooling can damage hardscape.
  • Inspect windows and doors to make sure stripping and caulking are in good condition. 
  • Check the heating systems to catch minor problems before they become costly repairs.
  • Clean ducts to make heating more efficient and air cleaner.
  • Make sure pipes are insulated to prevent freezing and bursting.

Fall Landscaping

  • Grass and other greenery may appear to stop growing, but the roots are actually growing deeper to prepare for winter. Now is a great time to fertilize and reseed. 
  • Prune trees and shrubs after leaves turn to encourage health and growth.
  • Trim tree limbs that could cause building damage when weighed down with snow or ice.
