Kent’s coastal climate can take a toll on your home, from damp conditions to storm damage. To keep your property in great shape, follow these essential maintenance tips:
1. Protect Against Damp and Mould
The damp coastal air can cause mould and mildew. Regularly check for signs of dampness, improve ventilation, and use dehumidifiers to keep moisture levels down.
2. Weatherproof Your Home
Check for gaps in windows and doors and seal them to prevent drafts. Repainting external woodwork and treating fences can help protect against rain damage.
3. Maintain Your Roof and Gutters
Regularly clean your gutters to prevent blockages and water damage. Check your roof for missing tiles or leaks, especially after storms.
4. Keep Outdoor Areas in Good Condition
Patios, driveways, and fences need regular cleaning and repairs to withstand the elements. Pressure washing can remove moss and grime, keeping outdoor areas safe and tidy.
5. Prepare for Seasonal Changes
In winter, insulate pipes to prevent freezing. In summer, trim overgrown hedges and trees to avoid damage during high winds. A little seasonal preparation goes a long way!
