The transition into fall from summer can be a rocky one, especially if you live in a place like Canby, Oregon. The leaves begin to change, the weather starts to get cooler, and people start to turn off their air conditioning start to dress up for the incoming cold weather. What many homeowners both new and old may fail to realize is that the changing weather that is creeping up on them can do harm to their home and cost them an unfortunately high amount of money if they are not properly insured.
One issue is that as the weather gets colder, a lot of people do not check their doors and windows to make sure that your home is properly insulated to avoid damage from the cold weather. Another thing that homeowners should consider watching out for is that as the weather gets colder, so too does it get dryer, and dry weather can do some serious damage to your furniture. If you do not take the proper precautions to keep the cold weather out of your home, you may find your favorite sofa is put out of commission – and if you are uninsured, insult would be added to injury, as you would have to pay to have the furniture replaced out of pocket. Canby, Oregon residents should also make sure that their roofs are properly shingled and kept in good shape and that their gutters are in good shape as well; not only can a poorly maintained roof cause a house to have too cold of falls, it can make it more unsafe to clean our the gutters.
