Fix Now, Save (A Lot) Later

 

By: Laura Fisher Kaiser

 

"From small things, Mama, big things one day come," as the song goes. It's especially true when it comes to your house. Left unchecked, seemingly minor things-a gutter pitched the wrong way, a bit of crumbly grout-can lead to bigger and expensive issues. The good news is that, in many cases, all it takes to head off catastrophe is a little preventive maintenance or an inexpensive repair. "Don't wait until it's an emergency," says TOH master carpenter Norm Abram. "Spot-check areas around your house, preferably twice a year, in the fall and spring. And when you do fix something, do it right so that you don't end up making the problem worse."

 

Mildew on Foundation Walls

 

Potential problem: Overgrown foundation plantings can channel water down exterior walls, leading to mold and sill rot. What's more, roots can work their way into foundation walls and pipes.

Easy Fall Prep for a Warm and Cozy Home

 

By: The Editors of This Old House, This Old House online

 

Get Ready for the Cold Season

 

Fall means vibrant red, orange, and yellow foliage, lots of pumpkins, and refreshingly cool temps. But, it also means winter isn't far away. Here are a few projects-from looking after your exterior to maintaining your heating system-that can help your home brace for the cold and save you some cash.

 

Install and Maintain Paths and Walkways

 

When crossing your muddy yard to fetch the daily paper turns into an obstacle course of slips and slides, perhaps it's time to think about an alternative path-literally. Holiday guests to come would also appreciate safe passage to your door. So, take a weekend to lay a brick walkway 


Make sure you check sidewalks and driveways for cracks. If you don't fill them now, water can seep in and freeze, making them even larger. Take the time to resurface worn concrete now and save you a whole lot of time and money later.
