Hose Bib Winterization
Protecting your plumbing from freezing temperatures can prevent major disasters, such as burst or frozen pipes. We offer hose bib home winterization. Northern Virginia homeowners can get their outdoor faucets, irrigation systems, and other exterior plumbing fixtures turned off and drained by our proficient experts. Along with your outdoor plumbing winterization, you should put away or cover any outdoor furniture, clean your gutters, and inspect your home’s siding for signs of damage.
Weatherstripping Windows and Doors
Exterior winterization and caulking aren’t the only aspects of home winterization. Northern Virginia homeowners should also get their doors and windows weatherstripped or repaired to keep warm air in and cold air out. We will inspect the inside and outside of your windows and doors to catch any gaps or worn weatherstripping to ensure you have an energy-efficient home during the winter months. This also puts less stress on your HVAC system, helping prevent costly breakdowns.
Add Caulk and Insulation to Help Out Your HVAC
Caulking gaps and cracks in and around your home goes hand in hand with weatherstripping. Our team of handyman specialists can assess your property to find any air leaks in your attic, walls, and exterior siding to see if we need to caulk any areas. You should also consider insulating your home. A well-insulated home mitigates the harsh weather conditions. We can add spray foam to vulnerable areas and add bulk insulation to your attic, crawl space, or basement floors for an extra layer of protection to prevent heat loss. You’ll see how big a difference it makes in your energy bills!
Install Holiday Lighting and Decorations
Winterizing your home doesn’t always have to be practical. Bring holiday cheer to your home this winter season with festive decorations, including holiday lighting and hanging Christmas wreaths. Whether you like vibrant colors or prefer the traditional warm light ambiance, we can help hang holiday string lights along your roofline so you don’t have to pull out the ladder.
