Projects You Should Be Doing Around Your House to Get Ready for Winter

Tates Rents' Guide to Preparing for the Cold Weather!

Yard Cleanup and Leaf Removal

As trees shed their leaves in the fall, it’s essential to keep your yard clear to maintain healthy grass and prevent mold growth. An accumulation of leaves can smother your lawn and create the perfect environment for mold and pests to thrive. Tates Rents offers various tools such as leaf blowers, power rakes, and lawn & litter vacuums, to help you handle the cleanup with ease. These tools can make the task faster and more efficient, allowing you to enjoy a tidy and healthy yard all winter long.

Gutter Cleaning

Clogged gutters can lead to serious water damage during the rainy season, making gutter cleaning a critical fall maintenance task. Water that overflows from clogged gutters can damage your home’s foundation, siding, and roof. Renting equipment like ladders, pressure washers, and leaf blowers from Tates Rents can make this task safer and more efficient. With the right tools, you can ensure that your gutters are clear and functioning properly before winter arrives.

Lawn Aeration and Seeding

Fall is the best time to aerate and seed your lawn, ensuring it stays healthy through the winter and into spring. Aeration helps to break up compacted soil, allowing water, air, and nutrients to reach the grassroots more effectively. Overseeding helps to fill in bare spots and improve the overall density of your lawn. Tates provides aerators and overseeders to help you complete these tasks efficiently. A well-aerated and seeded lawn will be better equipped to withstand the harsh winter conditions.

Power Washing Your Home’s Exterior

Before cold weather hits, it’s a good idea to clean the exterior of your home to prevent mold, mildew, and grime buildup. Power washing can remove dirt and debris that have accumulated over the year, giving your home a fresh look. Tates Rents offers power washers that are perfect for this job. By cleaning your home’s exterior now, you can avoid potential damage and maintain your home’s curb appeal throughout the winter months.

Tree Trimming

Dead or overgrown branches can pose a hazard during winter storms, potentially causing damage to your home or property. Fall is the ideal time to trim trees and remove any dangerous branches. We offer chainsaws and pole saws to help you trim trees safely and effectively. By taking care of this task now, you can reduce the risk of storm damage and keep your property safe during the winter.
