5 Home Improvement Tasks to Tackle This Season

The season of apple-picking, leaf-jumping and turkey-devouring is upon us. The temperatures are just getting colder, so this is your chance to use the beautiful autumn scenery as an inspiration to make your space as cozy as possible. Whether you’re interested in doing a complete home remodel or just adding some simple touches, we have five home improvement ideas for you to consider this season.

1. Replace the windows.
   This is important to check before the temperature begins to drop and the weather outside becomes frightful. Some may argue that these are invisible investments because you can look right through them, you will thank yourself later when you have protection from the cold.
2. Update the HVAC.
   Relatedly, you will want to evaluate your Heating, Venting, and Air Conditioning systems. If your system has been in place for longer than ten years, you may want to check to see if its functioning and possibly start looking into upgrades.
3. Upgrade your front door.
   In many ways, the front door of your house is your home’s exterior focal point, which is why Fall is the perfect time to paint it! Just make sure that the temperature won’t drop below 40 degrees, otherwise, the paint may have trouble adhering properly.
4. Beautify the exterior.
   Your home takes a lot of beating due to weather and plain old wear and tear, so take a look at the paint. If it’s still in good shape, you may be able to perform a few touch-ups to make it look shiny and new. If you are dealing with a much older paint scheme, consider calling a professional.
5. Clean up the gutters.
   While this may seem like a brutal task, it’s an often overlooked, but much needed one. The accumulation of seasons and weather conditions can really damage your gutters. Just taking 30 minutes out of your week to clean your gutters will do your home a lot of good!
