2. Foundation
Foundation cracks are a fairly common problem, but many people choose to ignore them when they’re small. This leads to their spread and growth, eventually becoming so problematic that it can cost many thousands of dollars to repair. While smaller cracks don’t typically contribute to structural instability, as they grow larger, they increasingly undermine the foundation’s integrity. In extreme cases, this can lead to the collapse of the entire home. Have foundation problems been addressed as soon as they arise, both to save money and ensure safety?
3. Gas Lines
Gas leaks in your home can be extremely dangerous. Natural gas and propane are dense and have a tendency to “sink” below regular air. They pool in the low areas of your home, meaning that you’re more likely to smell them (they smell like sulfur; “rotten eggs”) on the first floor or in the basement if you have one. Anytime you smell gas, or even think you smell gas, get yourself and your family out of the home immediately and call the gas company from outside. Repairs to gas lines should be made before you return to your home, and only by experienced professionals.
4. Plumbing
Water leaks and damaged pipes give mold a perfect environment to take hold in your walls, and you may not notice a leak until long after it started. Should you notice any dark spots or weakened areas in walls, or water bills that seem abnormally high, it’s important to find the cause and address it before it leads to larger problems.
Managing Home Improvement Tasks
It can be tempting to leave smaller home improvement tasks until “later,” but keep in mind that doing so could cost you more in the long run. Not every repair constitutes an emergency, but that doesn’t mean that non-emergency repairs should be ignored. Keep on top of home maintenance and repairs by keeping a checklist of necessary tasks; focus on completing one each weekend or each month. This will help you keep your home improvement projects from piling up and becoming major problems.
