Introduction
Every year, thousands of homeowners face expensive roofing and exterior repairs that could have been avoided with simple seasonal maintenance. As we move into 2026, weather patterns, aging materials and outdated components are making regular home checkups more important than ever.
At Vesta Remodeling, we help homeowners protect their property with preventative services that keep small issues from growing into major repairs.

Spring Maintenance: Inspect for Winter Damage
Spring is the most important time to check your home’s exterior. Cold temperatures, ice and snow can weaken roofing materials, gutters and siding.
You should look for
• Missing or loose shingles
• Cracked siding panels
• Clogged or damaged gutters
• Water stains on ceilings or attic beams

Summer Maintenance: Prepare for Heat and Storms
Hot temperatures and heavy summer storms can cause exterior wear, especially on older homes.
During the summer, make sure to
• Clean and secure your gutters
• Check siding for warping or sun damage

• Examine windows and doors for air leaks

Winter Maintenance: Monitor for Moisture and Ice
Even though winter maintenance is more about monitoring than repair work, ignoring seasonal issues can cause long-term damage.
Watch for

• Water seepage in the attic

Why Seasonal Maintenance Matters in 2026
Homes built more than 10–15 years ago begin showing clear signs of wear. In 2026, rising material costs and unpredictable weather make early maintenance a lot more cost-effective than large repairs.
Seasonal checks can
• Extend the life of your roof and siding
• Reduce the risk of water damage
• Improve energy efficiency
• Lower long-term repair costs
• Keep your home safe and comfortable
