- I have just happily purchased a home and would like to
- know how to take care of it.
-
- What I am looking for is a reference book that can tell
- me what maintenance I should do in the various seasons and
- how to do it.
-
- For example,
- When do I do gutters? (Clean them, repair them, paint them)
- What do I do in the winter? (Insulate? check the heat?)
- When can I do exterior work?
- What should I check and how often?
