Inspect the Woodwork
Just as important as in the spring, you need to ensure
that your exterior woodwork is in good repair. The cold temperatures and
precipitation will take their toll on your woodwork. As part of this inspection
you should inspect the weather stripping on your doors and windows. If the
weather stripping or glazing is in bad shape it can allow cold air to seep into
your house. Inspect the windows and re-glaze/repaint/repair where necessary.
If you have double-pane windows or better, this is a bit more complicated as
there is usually some sort of rubber gasket. Single pane windows are very easy to re-glaze
