October Home Maintenance Checklist

by Deanna Deckard

 

October’s mild weather in Solano County is perfect for tackling these unique home projects.

Skip the snow prep—here’s what to focus on instead! ๐Ÿ‘‡

---

โœ”๏ธ Clear Gutters & Downspouts ๐Ÿ
Remove fallen leaves and debris so autumn rains flow freely away from your roof and foundation.

โœ”๏ธ Check Weatherstripping & Door Sweeps ๐Ÿšช
Seal any drafts around doors and windows to keep indoor air cozy and your heater from overworking.

โœ”๏ธ Flush the Water Heater ๐Ÿšฟ
Drain sediment buildup to improve efficiency and extend the life of your unit—especially important with our mineralโ€‘rich water.

โœ”๏ธ Inspect Exterior Paint & Trim ๐ŸŽจ
Look for peeling, cracking, or mildew. Touch up or repaint areas prone to moisture to protect your siding and boost curb appeal.

โœ”๏ธ Service Pool & Spa Equipment ๐ŸŠ‍โ™‚๏ธ
Balance chemicals, clean filters, and winterize controls so you’re ready for spring reopening without surprises.

โœ”๏ธ Inspect Crawl Space & Foundation ๐Ÿ‘€
Check for moisture, pests, or cracks. Address any issues now to prevent mold or structural problems during rainy season.

โœ”๏ธ Clean Range Hood Filters & Vents ๐Ÿด
Degrease and vacuum your kitchen exhaust to maintain airflow, reduce fire risk, and help your HVAC run smoother.
