How do you fully winterize a house?

• <div><p>Complete house winterization goes above and beyond the list we created above. In addition to everything listed, full house winterization also includes:</p><ul><li><p>Performing a home energy audit.</p></li><li><p>Preparing your deck and patio for winter.</p></li><li><p>Learning <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-start-snowblower.htm">how to start a snowblower</a>.</p></li><li><p>Replacing smoke detector batteries.</p></li><li><p>Installing outlet gaskets.</p></li><li><p>Installing storm doors. </p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Should I clean my roof shingles if the roof has physical damage on it?

• <div><p>You should not clean roof shingles if the roof has damage like missing shingles or low spots where water may accumulate. You should focus on <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-do-roof-repairs-cost.htm">repairing the roof</a> before any cleaning process occurs. If you notice roof damage as you’re climbing on the roof to clean it, stop immediately. Call a roofing pro to make repairs. Cleaning a roof that has damage could lead to pooling water or water damage to the roof decking. The roof cleaning process removes mold and mildew, making the roof look better. It is not going to fix physical damage, though.</p></div>

Q: How do you make old shingles look new?

• <div><p>If you wish to forego painting your shingles but still want to give them a fresh look, a deep cleaning is the first step. Clean off any debris from your roof and gutters, and then power wash your shingles to get grime and algae off. To take things one step further, you might even consider installing new gutters to give your home a bright new look.</p></div>

Q: How much snow is too much snow on a roof?

• <div><p>Generally, snow removal from a roof should occur once <b>over six inches of snow</b> accumulates, especially if you notice that ice dams have formed. Without <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/7-questions-ask-hiring-ice-dam-removal-company.htm">ice dams</a>, you can let the snow accumulation hit 12 inches before removing it. However, the amount of snow that is too much for your roof also depends on the sturdiness of your roof and the compactness of the snow. If your roof needs maintenance or has structural issues, it&rsquo;s best not to let the snow accumulate too much for fear of collapsing.</p></div>

Q: Can pros remove tough stains and mildew?

• <div><p>Yes, pros use specialized solutions and pressure settings tailored to surface sensitivity.</p></div>
