Keep Your Shingles in Shape
Leaky roofs can happen due to a variety of things, but severe weather almost certainly will worsen one. By doing regular check-ins with your roof, you can inspect it for any signs of leaks and stop the problem before it becomes severe. Look for missing or peeling shingles and other signs of wear that might point to a weak point where water can enter.

Beat the Weather With Weatherstripping
Weatherstripping is such an effective measure that even Energy.gov suggests it for homeowners due to how much it can save on electricity costs and cut down on leaks inside the home. Buying inexpensive weatherstripping and installing it around your home’s openings is a simple weekend project that can do wonders toward sealing your home from the outside elements.

Gut Debris From Your Gutters
A clogged gutter is more than just a nuisance—it can cause serious damage to your home, especially when heavy rains come along. It is recommended to clean gutters at least every six months to prevent debris buildup. In between, watch for signs the gutter is clogged, such as water spilling over the sides during rain, downspouts that do not deposit water and any pools of water around the house.

Pick the Right Paint
Choosing your home’s paint is about more than just color with all the new product developments now on the market. Paints feature extra protections such as waterproofing and UV resistance now to help your home withstand severe weather for longer before needing to be repainted. If your paint is peeling or bubbling, a fresh coat with a more resistant paint might be wise.
