Summer offers excellent weather and conditions for home renovation projects. If you have a standing to-do list, it’s time to start tackling those tasks. Since some projects become more complicated when fall and winter arrive, taking care of them this summer will ensure your home is ready for the season changes.

What Projects Should I Complete Before Summer Ends?

1. Roofing Repairs

Making sure your roof is secure before winter will prevent any leaks associated with the rain and snow that tends to accompany most cold-weather months. Summer provides ideal working conditions for home renovation professionals. It will be easier to complete any roofing repairs, re-roofing projects, and roof replacements under the blue skies of summer.

2. Exterior Painting

A fresh coat of paint can completely transform your home. Summer offers consistent temperatures and weather that will help paint cure evenly. For a home with a stone exterior, schedule repairs or pressure-washing services to keep your house in top condition through the season changes.

3. Window Replacement

Windows play an essential role in properly insulating your home during various temperature shifts. Replace any drafty or cracked windows to keep the cold air out during winter. Having correctly sealed and efficient windows can help cut down on energy costs. Explore your options with a home renovation contractor.

4. Gutter Cleaning

Clogged gutters can become a nesting spot for termites, birds, and other damaging pests. Water overflowing from clogged gutters can cause damage to landscaping and erode your home’s foundation. As leaves begin to fall during autumn, it will only get worse. Clearing them out will ensure smooth water flow and prevent ice dams and other issues as winter rolls around.
