Exterior Cleaning NJ<\/a>: Before winter hits, you\u2019ll need to take care of these tasks now. Early planning is key! Here is a handy checklist to consult so you don\u2019t miss anything.<\/p>\n First, clean all patio furniture well, including cushions, allowing everything to dry completely. If you don\u2019t have a secure storage unit on site and don\u2019t want to transport your items to an off-site storage unit, it\u2019s best to have a professional shrink wrap<\/a> your furniture for safe keeping. \u00a0This will protect your items from the snow, wind and ice. You can do the same for seasonal outdoor toys and pool equipment.<\/p>\n Sweep your deck, then clean it with a hose or very low pressure washer. Apply a sealant or new coat of paint to your wood deck for extra protection against snow and ice.<\/p>\n No need to get up on the roof. You can inspect your roof from the ground using binoculars. Look for signs of damage such as loose or missing shingles. Call a roofer if you see anything that concerns you. If you see black streaks and other dirt, make an appointment for roof cleaning<\/a>.<\/p>\n Place weather stripping around all doors and windows. Check for gaps and cracks, applying caulk as necessary. This will keep drafts out during the winter, which will help you save on heating costs.<\/p>\n Disconnect all garden hoses, being careful to drain any remaining water. That\u2019s because pipes can freeze and expand in winter, and may burst. It\u2019s also a good idea to place insulating covers on outdoor faucets.<\/p>\n Clear your gutters and downspouts of any blockages such as leaves, dirt and twigs. Clogs can cause water to back up against the house. Leaks, as well as damaged roofing, siding and wood trim can all occur in this case. It\u2019s advisable to hire a professional for gutter cleaning<\/a> so you don\u2019t damage the gutter system or fall from the ladder.<\/p>\n Clearview Washing can help with many of these tasks when preparing your property for winter.
