Home improvement projects can add value to a home and
do-it-yourselfers know the sweat-equity that goes into such
projects can give homeowners a greater sense of pride in their
homes. But no two home improvement projects are the same,
and homeowners should know that certain projects are best
tackled during certain times of the year.
Fall is a great season to work on your house, as the weather
is often at its most agreeable once the summer heat has gone
and before winter weather arrives. The following are a hand-
ful of fall-friendly ff home improvement projects for homeown-
ers looking to improve their homes.
ROOF REPAIR
Whether youre repairing or replacing the roof, fall ff is a
great time of year to dust off ff the ladder and get some work
done on your roof for a variety of reasons. First and foremost,
fall ff is ideal for roof work because you wont have to be up
on the roof with the summer heat bearing down on you. This
can make the project move along more quickly, which is es-
pecially benecial if you are paying laborers to work on the
roof. The fewer hours workers are xing your roof, the less
you will be paying in labor costs.
In addition, xing up the roof in the fall ff ensures those win-
ter storms, be it rain or snow, wont nd their way into your
home via leaks. A leaky kk roof in winter is hard to x, as the
roof surface could be treacherous in the winter and winter
winds can make it dangerous to be up on the roof at all. Ad-
dressing leaks in the fall ff can prevent damage to your homes
interior, which can mount up if a leaky kk roof is not addressed
until the following spring.
WINDOWWORK
When the weather outside gets frightful, poorly insulated
windows can allow cold air into the home. That often has a
trickle-down effect ff on nances, forcing you to turn up the
thermostat in an attempt to offset ff the cold air pouring into the
home. Whether you need your windows replaced or simply
need to patch up any leaks, a proactive approach to leaky o kk r
older windows in the fall ff can save aa you from unnecessarily
high heating bills come the winter. Addressing leaky kk windows
also makes a home more comfortable for its inhabitants.
Fall is the ideal time to address a homes windows because
the temperature outside tends to be pleasant. This means you
likely wont have to make much of an effort ff to offset ff the ele-
ments, and open windows in the fall ff wont make your homes
interior very hot or cold like they might if you were to tackle
the project during the summer or winter.
FIXINGTHE FLOORS
Wood WW ooring is a hot commodity for many homeown-
ers. But not all ooring can be added to a home at any time
of year. Thats because certain types of ooring employ ad-
hesives that need temperatures inside the home to be within
a certain range, and that range is often within 70
o
to 80
o
F,
which makes fal ff l a great time to install such oors. Colder
temperatures can make it difcult for the ooring to dry and
bond, which will prove problematic down the road. Whats
more, many people entertain friends and family ff come late fall ff
and into the holiday season, and it can be difcult to do so if
you are busy installing new ooring.
PAINTING PROJECTS
Painting is another home improvement project that seems
tailor-made for fall. ff A fresh coat of paint or a new color
scheme around the house can give a home an entirely new
look and feel. But paint can be pungent and the aromas may
last if its applied at a time of year when it cant dry while the
windows are wide open. Paint fumes inside a home can make
the home uninhabitable, but painting at a time of year like the
fall, ff when you can keep the windows open during and after
the project, can help air the home out.
But interior painting isnt the only painting project ho-
meowners can tackle in the fall. ff Many exterior paints are
temperature-sensitive and need the temperature outside to be
above 40
o
F. Paint that freezes wont dry properly, and hom-
eowners might be left with a tt costly and unsightly mistake on
their hands. Fall temperatures tend to be amenable to both
interior and exterior painting projects, just be sure to check
the weather forecast before making your rst brush stroke.
Fall FF is an
ideal time
of year to
tackle home
painting
projects. rr

Dirty windows are unsightly, and they can
prevent benecial sunlight from entering a
home. Cleaning windows need not be done
every week, but it shouldnt be overlooked
completely, either. rr While it certainly may be
a chore to clean windows, there are ways to
make the task much more tolerable.
Curb appeal can be very important when
selling a home. Even a home with a perfectly
manicured lawn and the newest roong and
siding can seem unappealing if the windows
are dirty. Keeping windows clean requires
a good deal of work. For the acrophobics,
cleaning second-story windows can test the
nerves. Having the right tools on hand and a
strategy in place will make the job easier to
manage.
Cleaning Windows
Cleaning windows wont necessarily be easy,
but the following nine-step process can make
the task less difcult and time-consuming.
1. Choose a day when it is overcast so you
will not be blinded by the sun while cleaning.
This also helps prevent streaking. Begin by
gathering what youll need to get the task
done. Having everything at the ready will
enable you to move from one window to the
next. Here are the basic supplies you will
need:
* cleaning solution
* cloth, newspaper or squeegee
* towel
* spray bottle
* extension pole to reach high windows
* vacuum
* ladder or step stool
* garden hose
2. Take TT down and clean drapery or blinds
when cleaning the windows. Remove the
curtains so you will have an unobstructed
surface with which to work.
3. Start with the interior side of the windows,
as they are easier to access. Place a towel
on the sill to catch any drops so the sill or the
oor will stay dry.
4. Spray a lint-free cloth or the window
directly with the cleaning solution. The
edges and corners of the window tend to
accumulate the most grime, so begin by
cleaning those areas rst. Once they are clean
and you will not exchange dirt to the center
of the window, work on the middle. Wipe
the windows in a horizontal direction to help
alleviate dripping.
5. To create a streak-free surface, some
people prefer to use a squeegee to drag
out any pockets of moisture for more even
drying. Be sure to wipe the rubber strip of the
squeegee after each pass on the window. You YY
may choose to buff ff out any other streaks with
newspaper. rr
6. Vacuum VV the window sill and frame
afterward to catch any dust and debris.
7. Repeat the process for all interior windows.
8. Move outdoors and start off b ff y spraying
the window with a garden hose to loosen any
of the accumulated grime. Use your cleaning
solution to dissolve the rest of the dirt. You
may want to let it sit on the window if there is
stubborn grime. Repeat the cleaning process
used indoors for each window.
9. If exterior second-oor windows are hard to
reach, consider using a ladder and extension
pole to extend your reach. Upper windows
will not be scrutinized as closely as lower
windows, so you may have a greater margin
for error. I rr f the windows are simply too high
up, rely on a professional window cleaner to
get the job done rather than risk falls or other
injuries.
Mix your own cleaning solution
It may take trial and error to nd a solution
that works. Here is one recipe you may want
to start with.
1cup white vinegar
11/2 cups rubbing alcohol
2drops of dish soap
Pour into a clean and empty spray bottle.
Remember: Never mix bleach and ammonia
together to create a cleaning solution, as toxic
fumes will result.
