September brings shorter sunlit days, cooler temperatures. I’ve already noticed some of the leaves changing colours, a reminder that the winter season is fast approaching. While it seems like just yesterday we were in the full swing of summer, gears now have to shift, to prepare for the change in seasons.
Our schedules and activities aren’t the only change this time of year, we must also have to adjust our home needs too. Alas, it’s the time for seasonal maintenance – we all know the climate can change in an instant, so it’s best to get some winter-ready tasks done before you are caught unprepared.
Yet at the same time, we have to keep budget in mind, and get your property ready for winter, as frugally as possible. Right now {until October 31st} shoppers located in Alberta and Saskatchewan who use their RBC credit card will automatically earn 2x the RBC Rewards points at The Home Depot Canada, on every purchase whether in-store or Online at homedepot.ca.
Here are some winter-preparedness tips for you, keeping that money-saving {and 2x the earning} aspect in mind.
Get your Home Winter-Ready on a Budget
Interior Maintenance
Check for drafts – Feel for drafts around the edges of windows and doors, to keep your interior warm and save on heating bills. Depending on the status of the draft, your options include: replacing windows, replace seals and caulking around windows and door frames, or simply using heavier or insulated drapery over windows.
Inspect your furnace – You might need to hire a professional to test for leaks, and check efficiency; and now is a good time to change the furnace filter. We buy ours in bulk, and change them every few months, or with each change in season.
Winterize the air conditioner – We’ve had a home outdoor air conditioning unit for a few years now, and that means each fall we have to ensure it’s covered before the snow flies. Alternately, if you use window air conditioning units, remove them or cover to prevent air leaks.
Test home safety devices – Replace the batteries in all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors, and test to ensure they’re working properly.
Clean humidifiers – We use humidifiers during our dry Albertan winters, so now is a good time to replace old filters and clean the inside of the compartment. I clean mine with plain old vinegar, it’s inexpensive and works well.
Tend to summer power equipment and vehicles – It’s time to store away the lawnmower and trimmer {also the motorcycles or ATVs if you have them}. To help out the to-do list for next spring, service any equipment now so that they are ready for next use {maintenance, changing the oil or a good old cleaning}.
Get the winter equipment ready – Is your snow-blower in good working order, or perhaps it’s still on your to-purchase list? Time for a new shovel or two, or an outdoor extension cord? Evaluate what you have, need and want right now and be prepared for that first snowfall.
Clean the garage – While the weather is still tolerable, now is a good time to clean the garage. It’s much easier to find items, and work in a space that has had a refresher in organization. For this you might need more cleaning supplies, storage bins – or even some added shelving.
Exterior Maintenance
Check the Roof – Do at least a visual inspection of the roof and look for missing, damaged, or loose shingles. If needed, remove leaves and debris from the gutters.
Check the Chimney and Fireplace – If you have either, now is a great time to have it cleaned and inspected.
Store Water Hoses. – Before they freeze and the job is that much more difficult, drain garden hoses, disconnect from the outside spigots, and store in a dry place.
Tend to the Landscaping – Cut back bushes and shrubs, adding some winter mulch if needed. Yard waste the annual flowers, store flower pots and plant perennial bulbs if desired, so they come alive next spring.
Leaf Removal – Rake and dispose of leaves – my suggestion is to use those Halloween garbage bags!
Fertilize Lawn – Applying fall lawn fertilizer this time of year will help prevent winter damage and spring weeds. Check with the staff at the Home Depot Canada on which type of fertilizer is best.
Store Seasonal Furniture. – Clean and store seasonal outdoor furniture, and if you need to add to your collection or replace some – now is the time to do it. The Home Depot Canada has so much seasonal furniture on clearance, so now is the time to stock up for next year!
Organize the shed. – After tending to the yard work, you’ll have to store those rakes, cutters and other summer tools. It’s a great time to organize and clean out the shed. I suggest move the summer items to the back and bring the winter stuff up front and centre, for better access when you need it. While you’re at it, take note if any of your summer stock {rakes, soil} needs replacing, since these items are also on sale and clearance at The Home Depot Canada.
As you enjoy these last few nice days of summer-like weather {that is, if you are graced with them since ours seem to be long gone}, make sure to take the much-needed steps to ensure your home and property is ready for the change in seasons.
Whether you want to replace some summer items or stock up so you are ready for the Winter season, make sure to visit The Home Depot Canada {in-store or online} and take advantage of the 2x the RBC Rewards points at The Home Depot Canada.
Since I spotted many clearance and sale items on my last visit to The Home Depot, the added bonus of this new limited-time offer from RBC is a great opportunity to really stretch that dollar.
Making smart shopping choices like these could afford you something which you’d like and not just need – like perhaps that vacation to get away from our Canadian winters! {ok, maybe that’s a need}.
