Your home may not be a palace, but it should feel like one to you: beautifully appointed, perfectly functioning, and designed to cater to your unique needs. Unfortunately, that's often not the case. If you have a long list of home repair and maintenance tasks that need to be taken care of, your home can feel less like a palace and more like a dungeon that you can't wait to escape.

Sadly, neglecting those seemingly minor issues like drywall repair and deck refinishing can cause bigger problems down the road when the damage gets worse and causes a costly, time-consuming headache.

WINDOW REPAIR IN RESTON, VA

Natural light, fresh breezes, and of course, the views... windows are one of the best features of our homes, and the main thing standing between Reston homes and, well, cave dwellings. When they're in need of repair, they can cause some serious issues that make your home uncomfortable and cost you an arm and a leg on your utility bill.

DRYER VENT CLEANING IN RESTON, VA

Anyone who has ever had to dry their laundry by hanging it on a clothesline knows how important automatic clothes dryers are to save time, but many Reston homeowners are not aware that failing to clean their dryer vents creates a serious hazard to their home and family.

Normally, lint and other debris go into the lint trap, while the vent is used to rid the dryer of hot, humid air, but over time, lint and other materials make their way into the ventilation hose, partially or completely obstructing the airflow. This can cause the dryer to produce a tiny spark that sets highly flammable lint ablaze inside the vent, sending flames ripping through multiple levels of your home. But how do you know if your dryer vent needs cleaning? Here are some signs to be aware of:

  • Clothes are not dry at the end of one cycle
  • Takes more than about 30 to 45 minutes to dry clothes
  • Laundry has a musty smell or is very hot after drying
  • Visible lint around the vent opening (outside)

For safety, your dryer vent needs to be cleaned at least once per year, but large families that produce a lot of laundry may need cleaning services as often as every six months.
