Protecting Your Home’s Biggest Investments

Buying your Mokena, Illinois, home is just the start of the investments you’re going to make. Your home is a big investment, but so are the components that make up that home. 

Keep an Eye on Your Roof

Replacing your roof is a huge ordeal. When you clean your gutters, spend some extra time checking out your roof. Scope out any missing shingles or rust. Watch out for algae or growth as well. Check on your chimney to make sure it’s properly sealed. Prevention goes a long way when it comes to extending the life of your roof. 

Watch Your Water Heater

Maybe those hot showers just don’t seem to last as long as they used to. Perhaps your hot water pressure seems to be weaker than normal, or you’ve noticed sediment in your sink. This could be signs that your water heater needs maintenance. It’s expensive to replace, so be mindful of any issues as they arise.

Invest in Preventive Maintenance

Your HVAC system is one of the biggest investments you make as a homeowner. By getting a preventive maintenance agreement with your HVAC contractor, you ensure that it will always run efficiently. An HVAC system that is properly cared for will last longer and won’t waste energy. With a maintenance agreement, you’re also alerted to small problems before they turn into big ones. 

Test Your Indoor Air Quality

While your indoor air quality isn’t technically a physical investment in your home, investing in your family’s health is incredibly important. Have your IAQ tested regularly to make sure your family is breathing clean air. Keep plants in your home to help naturally improve the air quality. Get your ducts cleaned and change the filters regularly in your HVAC system. Dust with a wet cloth and vacuum the floors often to prevent dust and dirt buildup in your home.
