Don’t ignore these home necessities — it could cost you. Your home is a significant investment, but you need to stay on top of the necessities of home maintenance or you might end up making a costly mistake. Don’t forget these common things on your to-do list in taking care of your home.
For a healthier, more sustainable lawn and garden, balance your water usage, the climate you live in, and the weather so that you are taking care of your lawn without drowning it and wasting water, or drying it out from neglect. Water for a longer period of time with several days in between waterings, as opposed to a short watering every day. You don’t want to have to replace huge chunks of your lawn!
A leaky faucet can seem harmless, but you’re actually wasting water, and causing rust and calcium buildup on your faucet, sink, or tub. And leaky pipes, say in the garage, seem harmless as well, but again you’re wasting water, and ignoring a small problem that can perhaps grow and turn into a bigger problem. Fix leaks right away.
