Start With the Roof

When was the last time you took a long hard look at your roof? It’s not just seeing it as you pull up to the house but getting close to the joints and rain gutters. Also, look around any of the eaves with windows. This inspection should be done around the entire roof. If you are hesitant about climbing up there because of the slope, then bring in a professional roof contractor that you trust. Ideally, this would be the person who installed the roof.

Move On To the Rain Gutters

Before you get down off of that ladder you’ll want to make sure you are cleaning out the rain gutters all around the house as well. Not only could there be leaves in there but also birds’ nests left over from spring. Pay careful attention to the areas where your gutters are attached to the roof. There shouldn’t be any signs of rust at those seems.

Check the Foundation

The best rain gutters are ones that pour the water away from the house by at least 4 feet. That protects the foundation from water damage. Still, you need to walk around the entire home and check your foundation for cracks. That same type of inspection should be for your driveway and concrete patio. You don’t want to wait until winter to fix those cracks because once water gets in there and freezes it to make them even worse.

Clean Out the Fireplace

Cleaning out your fireplace is one of those jobs that is best left for a professional. They will literally have to clean from the bottom and from the top. This should be something that is done on an annual basis that if it has been a while since you had your fireplace clean then expect a lot of soot to be removed.

Get Rid of the Rubbish

As you are getting your home ready for fall, you might notice a lot of things that need to be tossed out. This would be the stuff you could easily get rid of in the trash but the bigger items like an old futon or mattress. That’s a job for Junk King Columbus. These junk removal pros can quickly sweep through your entire home and pull out all the things you point to that you want gone. Prepping your home for fall means getting rid of the rubbish and that is a job tailor-made for Junk King Columbus.

Things To Do After Your Kid Goes To College

Most parents make the road trip to drop their kids off at college for that first year. Although there might be a few tears, it’s also a cause for great celebration. You worked very hard to get to this point and should be very proud of what is ahead for your college-bound student. Now that they are settled into the dorm, there are some terrific projects you can take on. Here’s what to focus on after your kid goes to college:

First Parent Weekend

You will have the opportunity to see you kid a lot quicker than you think thanks to the first parent weekend. Most colleges have their parent weekend coincide with homecoming. It’s a very busy time for local hotels and car rental agencies. It’s a good idea to book ahead even as you’re returning home from that first drop-off.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving will be the first weekend that your college kid might be coming home. It might make sense to book your flights early to lock in a good price and a good time. Although you want them home early, you might find that actually flying on Thanksgiving morning will give you more options.

Start Baking

Your college kid is going to look forward to your care packages. That includes a lot of incidentals that you’re used to buying them along with all their favorite cookie treats. Just remember that they’ll probably be sharing with their dorm mates which means you should double up the batches!

Go On A Date

You are probably very busy all throughout the summer leading up to the moment when you drop your kid off at college. Now is the time to reconnect with your spouse. Plan a date night that will have special meaning for both of you. Don’t just go to the movies but instead go to a nice restaurant where you can talk and reconnect.

Clean Out the Rubbish

You don’t need to transform your college kid’s bedroom just yet. They still might be coming home for the summers. But there could be plenty of unwanted rubbish you can toss out not only from their bedroom but also throughout the rest of the house. A thorough basement and attic cleaning is a great project to take on and you’ll be helped by hiring a company like Junk King Columbus. Junk King Columbus will dispatch a pair of strong movers and a big truck to your home for the junk removal task. Your only job is to literally point to all the things you want taken away. After your kid goes to college, get rid of rubbish the fast and affordable way by turning it over to Junk King Columbus.
