Your Fall Home Care Checklist for a Smooth Seasonal Transition
As summer fades and crisp mornings start to sneak in, our homes need a little extra attention to prepare for the months ahead. Fall home care isn’t just about pumpkin decor and cozy throws, it’s about making sure your home is ready, inside and out, for cooler weather, shorter days, and the busy season to come.
From gutter cleaning to seasonal closet swaps, the tasks can pile up quickly. And if you’re juggling work, family, and everything in between, it can feel like just one more thing on your already full plate. That’s why having a plan and the right support matters.
Fall Home Care: Where to Start
Here’s a quick checklist to make sure your home is in top shape this season:
1. Tend to the Outdoors
• Clean gutters and downspouts to prevent clogs.
• Inspect your roof for loose shingles or damage.
• Schedule a fall lawn treatment or overseeding.
• Store patio furniture and clean your grill for winter.
2. Get Ahead of Seasonal Repairs
• Service your heating system before the first cold snap.
• Check weather stripping and seals around windows and doors.
• Schedule chimney cleaning if you have a fireplace.
3. Refresh Your Interior Spaces
• Swap out summer bedding for warmer layers.
• Bring out seasonal décor and lighting to add warmth.
• Deep clean high-traffic areas before the holidays arrive.
4. Do a Closet Reset
• Store summer clothing and pull out your fall/winter wardrobe.
• Donate or consign items you no longer wear.
• Rotate shoes, coats, and accessories so what you need is easy to find.
