As the summer season comes to an end, it’s time for homeowners in Çeşme, Alaçatı, Urla, Reisdere, and Çiftlikköy to prepare their homes for the winter months. Without proper preparation, summer houses can suffer both structural and aesthetic damage. 1. Roof and Waterproofing Check Sun exposure can cause cracks in roof materials. Ensure waterproofing is intact before the rainy season. 2. Facade and Paint Maintenance Sea salt and wind can wear down paint surfaces. Refreshing paint before winter improves both protection and aesthetics. 3. Plumbing and Electrical Checks After heavy summer use, inspect water, electricity, and gas systems for any issues. 4. Garden Preparation and Drainage Check your drainage system to prevent flooding during heavy rains and prepare your garden for winter. 5. Mold and Moisture Prevention For homes that will remain closed during winter, use moisture control solutions. Regular maintenance extends the lifespan of your property and helps avoid costly repairs.
