Top 10 Handyman tips for homeowners
Check your caulking twice a year
Re-seal tubs, showers, sinks, and windows to keep water out and prevent costly leaks.
Replace HVAC Filters Seasonally
A fresh filter every 3 months keeps your system efficient and your air cleaner.
Clean your dryer vent annually
Lint buildup is a leading cause of house fires. A quick clean can also shorten drying time.
Reverse your ceiling fans
Place fan on "counter-clockwise" in the summer to push cool air down and "clockwise" during the winter to circulate air.
Know where your water shut-off valve is located
In a plumbing emergency, shutting off water quickly can save thousands in damage.
Check smoke and carbon monoxide detectors
Test them twice a year and replace batteries on a schedule (many do when we change the clocks).
