Is it time to replace the insulation in your home?

It’s time for winter storms and snow again. Are ice dams going to be a problem on your roof this year?

It’s been a relatively mild fall here in Western Massachusetts, but it’s almost that time of year when we start getting hit with freezing temperatures and snow. You’re probably anticipating lots of shoveling and plowing once the snow comes, but one nuisance you may be forgetting about is ice dam formation on your roof.

As you get cozy inside, there could be pests doing the very same thing in your attic. Fall and winter are prime seasons for attic pests, and they can wreak major havoc on your attic insulation. As you get comfortable for winter, don’t forget to check the insulation in your attic and address any pest-related issues.

Upgrading your home can be a lengthy and cost-intensive process. Often, everything seems like a priority, and you might even be paralyzed by all the decisions that need to be made in terms of what to do first. When you’re working with a limited budget, you need to make the most of it and installing insulation is one of the most beneficial home improvements you can make.
