Is Your Home Ready for Fall and Cooler Weather?

October 17, 2016 by Tonia Hornsby

There are a few home improvement projects you may want to complete before the cooler weather arrives. For example, your roofing in the Jackson, MS area should be assessed, repaired and cleaned as needed to ensure it will protect the structure of your home. You may also want to complete these projects:

Outdoor Water: Because of the potentially cold weather, you should store any hoses and drain water from outdoor pipes. This will help ensure your pipes will not burst.
Clean: Fall is the perfect time to clean your gutter system and roof. If leaves are left in either location, water may not be able to properly drain away from your house.
Inspection: After the roof is cleaned, you may need to do a quick inspection to make sure everything is ready for winter. Your fall roof inspection will let you know if any minor repairs are needed.
Chimney: Chimneys are most often used in the winter, but before you can safely use yours, you need to make sure it is clear. Blockages could cause dangerous gases to get caught in your home, which may lead to a fire.
Seal Leaks: If you notice drafts around your windows or doors, you may want to fix those issues before the cold weather sinks in. Gaps in weather stripping, according to the U.S. Department of Energy, may account for about 10 percent of a person’s heating bills.
Insulation: Fall is also the perfect time to make sure your attic insulation is adequate. If you notice sections have fallen down or seem to be thin, you may want to add some more.

It may seem like there is a lot to do before winter, but you do not need to worry. You can work with a team of professionals to get your home is ready for winter.

Complete Exteriors did an amazing job. They are super professional, on time, and the quality is top notch. They found things that others had missed and worked with me the whole time. One of key takeaways for me is their service. To have a vendor not only do they job, but also inform and educate you through the whole process is amazing. Damien was on site the entire day during the build, constantly updating and working with his crews. He was even there the next day after the job to ensure all was good to do one last spot check. Even the general manager Eddie came out to ensure all was going right. Another aspect that was awesome is even when I was at work, I was getting a progress report with where they were at with job through today. Even when the materials were delivered, I got an update that showed all the matching lot numbers for every case of tiles. This was in no way a Lowes delivery weeks before the job. This was a managed direct delivery with all matching numbers. I will say, in a world where customer service is becoming less and less, Compete Exteriors is breaking the mold. Again, if you need a roof, give them a call. I feel 100% confident I have a roof for MANY years to come.

Complete Exteriors recently replaced my roof due to hail damage. I was very impressed with the professionalism and quality of the job. As proven by the finished product, they had a skilled team performing the roofing ( and wood replacement where needed. ). They even cleaned up the walkways in the attic. Joe, Damien, and Greg all checked in personally throughout the day to ensure the job was going according to my standards. I would definitely recommend them for any restoration or roof work.

I'd like to compliment Josh Wilson with complete exteriors. Josh handled all the handyman issues that needed to be done after the roof was installed. He took care of everything in a prompt and quality maner.

Damien was my roofer and is excellent and very professional. My experience with Holden overseeing this whole project has always been thorough. I’ve never had a problem with this company at all. I highly recommend!

Complete Exteriors has got to be the most organized, thorough, and efficient roofing contractor any where around. From the initial inspection with an insurance adjuster to installation, I never had to repeat myself nor ask the same questions until I got an answer. The left hand knew what the right hand was doing all through the process and I never had to worry about them following through with what we discussed in the planning stage. They handled all the paper work with the insurance company once I filed the claim. I highly recommend Complete Exteriors to service your roofing, gutter, and siding needs!

Great Company and staff. They did a great job with our roof replacement. Damien Pierre kept us aware about everything that was going on. He did a great job managing the process. I was really impressed with that young man.

I'd like to thank the Gutter installers from Complete Exteriors Roofing & Gutters for doing an outstanding install today, totally changed the look on the front of the house, appreciate the advice on going with the copper penny gutter, it has the look of expensive copper install but without the cost or tarnishing over the years. Professional, friendly, and timely, will definitely be looking at other services they offer.
