Trying to Time Home Repairs?
When your finances are tight, you’re are often forced to choose between making home repairs right away, and putting them off until finances improve.
Some repairs, though, become more expensive if not tackled ASAP. The hard part is knowing which fixes those are.
In this 5-minute piece from The Today Show on NBC, a Consumer Reports editor talks about important, must-make home repairs, including:
- Soil for runoff of rainwater
- Replacing cracked or curled roofing shingles
- Sealing damaged vinyl siding
- Replacing soft wood
- Treating mold issues
Maintaining a home preserves its long-term integrity and can help support resale value, too. Not every minor fix must made today, but left unchecked, some minor fixes can turn into major ones — and that’s when costs can pile up.
