🏡🍂 **HOMEOWNER TIP: IS YOUR EXTERIOR WOODWORK READY FOR WINTER?**
Rochester winters can be tough on your home, especially outdoor wood structures like fences, decks, railings, and trim!
As temperatures drop, moisture can work its way into damaged or exposed wood. When that moisture freezes and expands, small problems can turn into costly repairs.
🔨 **Here are 5 things to check before winter:**
✅ **Loose or damaged boards** – Check fences, decks, and railings for movement, splitting, or deterioration.
✅ **Peeling paint or failing finishes** – Exposed wood is more vulnerable to moisture damage.
✅ **Soft or rotting wood** – Pay special attention to areas near the ground and places where water collects.
✅ **Loose fasteners and connections** – Make sure railings, fence sections, and other wood structures are secure.
✅ **Drainage around wood structures** – Keep leaves, debris, and standing water from collecting against wood.
💡 **A little preventive maintenance today can help avoid bigger repairs tomorrow!**
