In-Laws, Christmas Lights, Leaky Roof – Oh My!

November 26, 2007 // Franchising.com // Seattle - The holidays are fast approaching and your family and friends will soon be arriving on your doorstep…are you prepared? HomeTask Handyman Services is here to help! Let's review a few must-have's for your winter to-do list that will keep your family and home safe this season.

You'll want your handyman to begin with your entry way, making sure walkways and porches are free of ice, snow and debris and make sure all outdoor lighting is functioning properly. Then, don't be faced with a teetering ladder and tangles of light strings that don't work, let HomeTask hang your holiday decorations safely and properly. While he's on the ladder, have him check your roof for any loose or damaged shingles and of course, make sure your gutters are clear of obstructions or leaks.

Then offer your handyman a nice cup of warm hot chocolate as he inspects your furnace, boiler and/or water heater for any potential problems. Have him check the attic and apply weather stripping or caulking to minimize air leaks and reduce your energy costs. Don't forget the kitchen, as it has become an essential room for entertaining guests; consider installing appliances under countertops to allow more work space or updating your cabinets and flooring for a more comfortable setting.

Whether your needs are big or small this holiday season – hand your to-do list over to our experienced and professional handymen and see how they can enable peace in your home.
