Without proper and consistent maintenance, a home can quickly deteriorate. As a homeowner, you are in control of the longevity of your home. Therefore, it is imperative that you perform the necessary home maintenance so that your home can withstand typical wear and tear.

1. It is important to regularly clean all vents and filters. This goes for your heater, air conditioner, septic tank, etc.
2. Water-based appliances require additional attention. You should drain your water heater once a year and pump your septic tank every 3-5 years.
3. You should plan a day each year where you check your smoke alarms and replace any faulty batteries.
4. Your refrigerator coils should be cleaned every 3-6 months to ensure efficient use.
5. Since your gutters collect vegetation, debris, leaves, and waste, it is imperative that you clear them every so often. Debris accumulation in your gutters can lead to flooding, mold, or rot.
6. Most importantly, take pride in being a homeowner and take the necessary steps to promote longevity in your home.
