When you come home from vacation, you want to keep that relaxed feeling as long as possible. That's where we come in.
When you're away for more than a couple of days, here are a few tips to keep your home maintenance protective instead of reactive. This is based on over 21 years of caring for some of the finest properties in Manhattan:
🕳️ Air & moisture: Raise the thermostat 7-10 degrees and hold humidity between 40-50% to protect wood and prevent mold.
🕳️Water: Braided supply lines fail without warning. Replace them around year five, add leak sensors, and know your main shutoff.
🕳️Clogged drains: A clogged roof drain can change from a minor maintenance issue to an expensive problem fast. A roof inspection now can save tons of stress later.
Top Hat Home Services manages the whole home, from roof to foundation; exterior and interior, so owners can come home to everything exactly as they left it. Let us help you keep that just-back-from-vacation feeling.
