DIY Fall Maintenance Can Save Money in the Long Run

POSTED BY

With fall in the air, your thoughts may turn to what needs to be done to your home before winter sets in. Many tasks are done much more easily when the weather is still nice. Plus, taking care of routine maintenance tasks now can save you aggravation and money down the road.

“If you don’t do these things and you end up having to do repairs, it can cost so much more later,” says Leah Ingram, an author and frugal living expert.

any fall maintenance routines are designed to prevent water damage and guard homeowners from safety hazards, especially from fires. “Water is a homeowner’s worst enemy,” Ingram says. “People don’t think about the kind of damage it can do.”

The use of fireplaces, candles and space heaters, all more common in winter, can be a fire hazard if you don’t keep up with routine safety measures. “Unfortunately, house fires are fairly common in the winter months,” says Anne Reagan, editor-in-chief of Porch.com, which publishes advice for homeowners and matches them with professionals who do home repairs and maintenance tasks.

Of course, some jobs should be lfet to professionals, but for 15 home maintenance tasks you can do yourself – and save money – visit the following link:
