Seasonal Exterior Maintenance Checklist for Missouri Homeowners

Your home’s exterior is constantly exposed to the elements — from harsh summer heat to heavy winter snow. Keeping your roof, siding, windows, and doors in top shape requires seasonal attention. At Eagle Eye Exteriors, we believe that proactive care is the key to long-term protection and performance.

Here’s a simple seasonal maintenance checklist to help Missouri homeowners protect their investment and avoid costly repairs.

Spring: Inspection & Cleaning

As the weather warms up, spring is the perfect time to check for damage caused by snow, ice, and wind.

  • Inspect Your Roof for missing or damaged shingles, loose flashing, or signs of water stains in the attic.
  • Clean Gutters and Downspouts to ensure proper drainage and prevent water damage to your roof and siding.
  • Wash Your Siding with a low-pressure hose to remove dirt, pollen, and mildew.
  • Check Window Seals and caulking for any cracks or deterioration after the cold months.
  • Examine Exterior Doors for gaps, loose hardware, or warping.

Summer: Protection & Prevention

Summer storms and heat can take a toll on your home’s exterior. Use this time to prevent future problems.

  • Check for Signs of Fading or Warping on siding and trim due to UV exposure.
  • Seal and Paint as Needed to protect wood and prevent moisture intrusion.
  • Inspect Roof Ventilation to ensure your attic stays cool and reduces strain on your HVAC system.
  • Upgrade to Energy-Efficient Windows to reduce cooling costs and block solar heat gain.

Fall: Prepare for Cold Weather

Fall is all about preparation. Getting your exterior ready now can save you major headaches in winter.

  • Schedule a Professional Roof Inspection before heavy snow or ice arrives.
  • Clean and Inspect Gutters again to remove fallen leaves and debris.
  • Install Weatherstripping on windows and doors to block drafts and lower heating costs.
  • Check for Loose Siding Panels or gaps where pests could enter before winter.

Winter: Monitor and Maintain

Winter may be the slowest season for outdoor projects, but monitoring your home is still important.

  • Watch for Ice Dams on your roof, which can lead to leaks and structural damage.
  • Check for Drafts near windows and doors and make temporary adjustments if needed.
  • Look for Signs of Condensation on window panes, which may indicate poor insulation or air leakage.

If winter exposes problems, don’t wait — we offer year-round estimates and service scheduling.
