Fall, like any season, presents its own challenges for your home. The roof replacement experts at Home Pro Exteriors share some tips on how you can prepare your home for the season.
Trim Dying Tree Branches
Tree branches become flimsier the more leaves they shed. And it’s only a matter of time until dying tree branches fall. Roof damage in fall and winter can be problematic—heat can leak out while you’re waiting for contractors to fix your roof. It’d be better if you can trim these branches before they do any damage to your roof.
Clean Your Gutters
A lot of the leaves shed by trees will end up in your gutters. Water from clogged gutters can spill onto your roof, causing moisture damage. To prevent this from happening, clean your gutters regularly in fall.
Check If There Are Any Gaps in Your Exterior
In addition to cleaning your HVAC system’s air vents and filters, checking your exterior for any gaps can help reduce your heating costs. Heat can leak out of cracks or gaps in any of the following:
- Weather sealing in your doors and windows
- Exterior caulk on your siding and plumbing
- Roof’s outer surface, especially if there are loose shingles
Before the weather gets too cold, it’d be a good idea to have roof repair contractors inspect your roof and other parts of your exterior.
Fix Cracks in Your Patio and Driveway
The freeze-thaw cycle can widen pre-existing cracks in your patio and driveway. Fixing them before the start of winter will help mitigate the damage. To make sure the cracks in your patio and exterior are properly fixed, only hire reputable contractors.

Our Customers Love Us!
DON’T JUST TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT
HERE IS WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY
When we needed a new roof for our home we were met by Home Pro’s lead man, Dan Lynch, who provided us with a detailed breakdown of what the job entailed and the steps that would be taken to complete it. That breakdown was clear, concise and followed thru with professionalism. Home Pro gave us a quality job at a fair price, and you can’t ask for more.

This is the second time we have used Home Pro Exteriors. First time we had a new roof installed and we were completely satisfied with their work. Clean and efficient. Never know the crew was there! Now we had a new window installed in our bedroom…Wow what a difference! both of the crews that worked on our home were extremely professional. and again you would never know any work was done clean and efficient as usual. We would recommend Home Pro to anyone looking for the very best in exterior work for their home.

My wife and I decided to build a home from the ground up. With all the things we had to worry about we didn’t want finding a reliable contractor to be one of them. We called Home Pro to put up the siding because they offered the product and color we were looking for. Their execution was impeccable and more importantly they were honest and reliable.

I hired Home Pro Exteriors to help us execute several projects on a home renovation show and Joe and his crew were as good as it gets. He was professional, friendly, courteous, and worked effectively and efficiently to get the job done. Not only did Joe help execute ideas, but he built an art studio from scratch and made our clients cry tears of joy. He even designed and custom made draft boards for the artist himself…

We thought redoing our roof would be a nightmare but Home Pro was a dream come true. We really appreciated the time they took to explain what we could expect of the project. Their workers were skilled and a pleasure to deal with. We’re very happy with the finished result and have already recommended Home Pro to others!

We finally decided this was the year to build a patio room off the living room. We called several companies for an estimate, and we are so glad Home Pro was one of them. They listened to our needs and worked with us to build a suitable design. They always came on time, kept the space clean, and finished within the timeline given. We are so happy with our patio room! Thanks guys!
