Autumn Home Preparation Checklist

  • Inspect and clean gutters and downspouts to prevent clogging from falling leaves

  • Check your roof for damaged or missing shingles and repair as needed

  • Seal gaps and cracks around windows and doors to prevent drafts

  • Service your heating system and replace air filters

  • Inspect and clean the chimney and fireplace if you use them

  • Winterize outdoor faucets and sprinkler systems to prevent freezing

  • Store or cover outdoor furniture and equipment

  • Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and replace batteries if necessary

  • Rake leaves and clean up yard debris

  • Trim trees and bushes away from the house and power lines

  • Check weatherstripping on doors and garage doors

  • Prepare an emergency kit for possible storms or power outages
