Prevention tips for homeowners focus on safeguarding the home from potential risks and maintaining its value. Start by securing all entry points with strong locks and installing a security system. Regularly inspect and clean gutters to prevent water damage and check for signs of roof wear. Trim trees away from the house to reduce fire risk and prevent storm damage. Install smoke detectors and carbon monoxide alarms on every floor. Address plumbing leaks immediately to avoid mold growth. Consider upgrading insulation for energy efficiency, and ensure proper ventilation to prevent moisture buildup. Regular maintenance is key to preventing costly repairs.
