Here are 5 things you can do this winter to help protect your home:
1. Fill gaps around windows and doors with caulk or install weatherstripping around the edges of doors and windows to create a tight seal.
2. Hire a professional to do a chimney sweep as well and clean and inspect the fireplace and chimney.
3. Make sure your gutters and downspouts are cleared of leaves and debris.
4. Winter can be hard on patio furniture. Store your outdoor furniture inside to keep it clean and prevent damage.
5. Remember to cover exposed pipes and faucets to ensure nothing bursts.
