Gutters : If you haven't done so already now is a good time to have your gutters serviced. If your not afraid of getting on a ladder, then you may be able to handle the task yourself. You will need a ladder,  garden hose, gloves,and several garbage bags. once your up on the ladder remove all old leaves and debris from the gutters , then check all down spouts or leader for any loose or blocked passages. after all of the leaves are removed, run the garden hose and flush out any dirt left behind in the gutters...
Decks : It's also a good idea to start inspecting your deck for any repairs. Make arrangements  to have it pressure
washed, stained, or painted if needed.....
