Time To Get Your Home Ready For Fall

After the Labor Day weekend, we make the quick slide into fall. It won’t be long before all the trees are bursting with color around Hudson Valley. That brilliant display of colors will only last for a few short weeks. After that, all the leaves start falling down and it becomes your job as a homeowner to rake them up. Raking the lawn is not the only job you need to do to get your home ready for fall. Here some other items to add to your to do list:

gutter-guard-ipswich-2434467_1280

Remove Debris From Rain Gutters

As you rake your leaves, you’ll need to keep an eye on the rain gutters. It’s a safe bet they’ll be filled up with fallen leaves as well. There might be also a lot of debris left over from the summer and spring. The best thing you could do to get your home ready for fall is clean out those rain gutters before the first big storm.

That is also a good opportunity to give your roof the once over. Keep an eye out for any shingles that might be buckling or other problem areas. Those should be addressed right away.

Service Your Fireplace

It is recommended that you clean your chimney at least once a year. If your family enjoys a lot of cozy fires in your fireplace, then you might even need a twice annual cleaning. Along with sweeping the chimney, the professional fireplace cleaners will also be able to check your flue to make sure that’s clear as well.

Build Up Your Firewood Supply

Getting ready for the fall also means getting your firewood supply ready. Ideally, it should be stacked away from the house and covered from the elements. Every time you burn a new fire inside, you should bring in logs to start to dry out. Just make sure you check them for any uninvited guests like spiders or other bugs.

Service your furnace

Although you been using hot water all throughout the summer, you still haven’t turned on the heat. That’s going to change very soon. If your furnace hasn’t been serviced in a while, then it’s a good idea to get it looked over. This is not something you want breaking down in the middle of the winter.

Remove All Your Rubbish

this is also the perfect opportunity for getting rid of rubbish. Whether you got yard waste outside or bulky clutter inside, you can always count on Junk King Hudson Valley to help get it removed from your property. They’ll send over a pair of workers who will take away anything you point to. Getting your home ready for fall is easy when you got Junk King Hudson Valley on the job.

Schenectady, New York

“I think your service is great! Our home had just been listed on the MLS for sale and our first showing was the second day after our movers had moved all of our things out of the home. The day after the move, we were frantically cleaning and trying to decide what to do with “junk” that was left over from the move. We thought we’d save money and try to donate, or throw away what we could in our trash, or just ask neighbors if they wanted it. We had a lot of junk! So at the end of the day, while looking at all the junk no one wanted, and stuff we could NOT throw in the trash, I frantically called Junk King and explained my situation. I had ten showings the next day, the first one was scheduled for 8:45 (buyers showed up fifteen minutes early), and I needed their help asap! It worked out that Reggie and David with Junk King showed up at my door at 8AM the following morning! I prayed, I had fingers crossed, and I may have had a dream that they didn’t show up, but they did!”

What Are The Pros And Cons Of Having A Roommate?

Are you thinking about having a roommate move in? As with all things in life, there are pros and cons to explore. Here’s what you should be thinking about:

Reasons for Having a Roommate

You’ll Never Feel Lonely

Just because you have a roommate doesn’t mean you have to become best friends with that roommate. However, there’s a lot to be said for not living in isolation. Even the simple gesture of being able to check in with someone at the end of your day makes for a pleasurable living experience.

packing-cases-298459-m

You’ll Have Help

Having a roommate is often very convenient especially if you have things to take care of around the house like plants or pets. It also means when you go out of town that someone will be looking over your place. You won’t have to stop mail. Your roommate can also help with some of the cleaning and shopping. If they’re going to the dry cleaner, then they could pick up your items as well. It’s a win-win

You’ll Be Saving Money

The biggest bonus for having a roommate is saving money. Because you’re splitting the rent, you might be able to move into a larger apartment with more room. Splitting the utility, Internet and cable bills will also be a big help. If you can cook with your roommate, then you’ll save money because cooking for two is actually less expensive than cooking just for one.

Reasons Against Having a Roommate

You Want More Privacy

You may be the type of person that prefers living alone. There’s nothing wrong with that but having a roommate means you’re going to need to share things whether you like it or not. Even though you don’t have to ask permission with your roommate, you still need to inform them of things like overnight guests or when you’re staying out. You would be doing that if you were living on your own.

You Don’t Want Drama

You may spend a lot of time screening for potential roommates but that doesn’t mean you can always screen out the drama. Along with the roommate comes all of their “baggage.” That includes romantic relationships and family squabbles. It’s easy to see how you might be pulled into those situations.

Whether you opt for a roommate or not, your living space will certainly benefit with a junk removal session set up by Junk King Hudson Valley. These are the professional junk haulers who can make short work out of getting rid of old furniture, appliances, e-waste and other household goods. They’ll do all the work and that includes climbing the stairs! Put them to work today.
