Hurray, we finally have sunny days. Unfortunately a few of you probably had some leaks or drainage problems with all the rain we had this Winter. Now is the time to start planning for the maintenance and repairs that all homes need.
Take the time when doing your spring window washing to clean out your window tracks and check the weep holes and make sure they are clear. Look into the corners of your windows and make sure the silicone still has a good seal.
If you have experienced fogging between the panes of your windows, this can be repaired by replacing the window glass. You may be surprised as allot of the windows will carry some type of warranty. Check with your local glass company listed on MyGoToSource.com and they will provide you with the needed information.
Regarding poor drainage at your home, make sure you keep the soil level below the finished floor level and that you maintain a 2% slope away from the structure. Take the time to fix this before you plant your spring flowers and you will be one step ahead for next winter. It is always a good preventative measure to make sure that you keep your sprinklers from spraying on the structure as well.
Have a happy day!
