Maintenance Notes
As the colder months approach, it’s important to take a few simple steps to keep your apartment in great shape. Preparing early ensures your home stays comfortable, clean, and inviting all season long.
Fall & Winter Apartment Prep 🏠❄️
Test your heating: Check your thermostat or space heater now to make sure it’s working properly.
Report issues early: Notify maintenance right away if you notice any heating problems, so you’re not caught off guard when temperatures drop.
Stay on top of cleaning: Dust can build up quickly when windows stay closed. Wipe down surfaces, vacuum behind furniture, and keep air flowing.
Add cozy touches: Bring out blankets, soft lighting, and seasonal décor to make your space warm and inviting.
