As we move towards the latter stages of the year, we are now firmly in the grip of autumn with the colder winter weather, no doubt just around the corner!
As the temperature starts to drop, the Chartered Surveyors at GSC Grays are advising homeowners to check their properties to help stop the predicted harsh weather from taking its toll on their property, heating and maintenance bills. Properties are vulnerable to attack both from the outside elements and the moist, warm conditions that build-up inside during the winter months, so now is an ideal opportunity to prepare.
The RICS have compiled a simple winter property checklist, which will help homeowners prepare for any colder weather in the coming months and includes:
Roof:
Loft:
Gutters and drains:
Walls:
External paving:
Decking:
Windows:
Doors:
Floors:
Chimney:
Boilers:
And finally, check your heating system is in order; insulate internal hot water tanks, and bleed radiators so they are working at their most efficient
While many of these simple tasks can be undertaken safely in the home, it is important that people seek the advice of reputable professionals when looking to complete larger jobs and most importantly, appropriately qualified contractors for works to gas, electric or oil based systems.
