According to a survey done by the National Association of Home Builders, homeowners spend around $1,000 a year on routine maintenance. While that may seem like a lot up front, keep in mind that that amount can be budgeted for across the entire year. Additionally, that $1,000 for upkeep helps to prevent large, costly damage later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While every home is different, here are a few common maintenance points all homeowners should be managing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>HVAC System<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">HVAC repairs can range from $100 for minor issues to as much as $3,000 for major repairs and replacements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>What to Do<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Check and change air filters every one to three months.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Schedule inspections and seasonal tune-ups<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep the outdoor unit clear of debris or anything that could block airflow<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Regularly clean air ducts<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Roof<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A compromised or damaged roof can lead to leaks. Leaks can lead to water damage, mold, and structural deterioration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>What to Do<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Inspect regularly for missing or damaged shingles, especially after large storms<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep nearby trees trimmed to prevent branches from falling on roof<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Schedule annual roof inspections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Gutters<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gutters and downspouts direct water away from the home and protect the foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>What to Do<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Clean gutters twice a year (typically in the spring and fall)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ensure downspouts are securely attached<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check that water is being directed at least five feet away from the home and is not pooling<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Windows and Doors<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Seals and caulking can degrade over time, leading to drafts and water leaks. Upgrading to energy-efficient models may be a good consideration if utility bills are often high.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>What do Do<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Inspect seals annually for cracks, gaps, or wear<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Watch for common issues like condensation between glass panes, bubbling paint, or warping around the frames<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apply silicone-based lubricant to hinges, tracks, and locking mechanisms<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Water Heater<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.homedepot.com\/services\/c\/cost-install-water-heater\/9058c024e\">The Home Depot<\/a>, the nationwide cost of replacing a water heater ranges from $2,400 to $5,400.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>What to Do<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Drain and flush annually to remove sediment and improve performance<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inspect the anode rod (prevents corrosion) and replace if necessary<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the temperature and Pressure relief valve near the top of the tank<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Plumbing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plumbing issues, even minor leaks, can lead to significant water damage if ignored or overlooked over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>What to Do<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Inspect toilets, appliances, and plumbing fixtures for leaks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Replace worn-out water hoses for washing machines, dishwashers, fridges, etc.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Turn off the water in the house, wait 30 minutes, then check the water meter. Low pressure could indicate a leak<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Watch for water stains, mold, or mildew smells<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Early detection of fires and toxins is critical to your safety. According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), the risk of dying in a home fire is cut in half if your home has a working smoke alarm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; <strong>What to Do<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Test detectors monthly and replace batteries at least once a year<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clean with a vacuum with a soft brush or compressed air to remove dust from vents<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Check the detector manufacturer&#8217;s date. CO detectors typically last 5-7 years, which is shorter than most smoke detectors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Big issues with your home can be expensive. Home maintenance is key. Developing a routine of regularly checking important systems and points around the home can help homeowners stay on top of potential problems. While this checklist can help highlight common tasks, it\u2019s not a substitute for professional evaluations. Trained, certified inspectors can help identify issues before they become wallet-emptying problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For further help with protecting your home, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.northeastnebraskainsurance.com\/contact-us\/\" type=\"link\" id=\"https:\/\/www.northeastnebraskainsurance.com\/contact-us\/\">contact us<\/a> to find a local independent Northeast Nebraska Insurance agent.
