Home maintenance isn’t just for the summer time! Make sure you are keeping up!
Ah, January. The time of new beginnings, new resolutions, and, in most of the country, a seemingly endless stretch of cold and gloom. We get it: You just want to hibernate, catch up on “The Crown,” and scroll Instagram. But before you take up permanent residence on the couch (or treadmill, if you’re on that kick), take heed: This is the absolute worst time to have a major home maintenance problem.
“Catastrophic issues tend to happen in the winter—and when those occur, nine times out of 10 it’s due to failing to plan,” says Janet O’Dea, owner of Powers Plumbing in San Diego. “Taking some time to anticipate and be ahead of maintenance issues throughout the year takes a lot of pressure off.”
We couldn’t agree more. And that’s why we’ve done the heavy lifting for you (click here), season by season, so you can avoid the pain (and expense) of costly home repairs. Now that’s a resolution we can get behind!
