Ready to protect your biggest investment this winter?

🏡 In the second half of our deep-dive conversation, Aaron Rogers from Pro Exteriors helps you get your Southern Delaware or Eastern Shore home ready for the cold and harsh weather. We move from the roof to the foundation, covering crucial exterior and interior areas to help you save money, prevent damage, and avoid costly winter headaches.

We discuss why fall is the perfect time for a home walk-around inspection and cover specific, actionable advice for:

Topics Covered:

• Siding Inspection: What to look for on your vinyl siding (broken, loose, or brown stains) and the danger of cold weather making vinyl brittle.

• Power Washing: Is fall or spring better for cleaning off that green algae?

• Exterior Plumbing (Hose Bibs & Outdoor Showers): The critical step to take before the first frost to prevent broken pipes, especially for beach houses and vacant homes near the coast.

• Deck Maintenance: Aaron shares the ideal season (and temperature) for staining and sealing pressure-treated lumber on your deck.

• HVAC & Air Filters: Why changing your air filter (1-inch vs. thicker filters) is the most important, low-cost maintenance you can do to keep your heat pump efficient and prevent system failure.

• Attic & Crawl Space Insulation: The importance of checking your R-value, securing floor joist insulation, and understanding soffit baffles and attic ventilation.

Don't wait until winter hits! A little fall maintenance goes a long way.
