7 outdoor home projects that require telescopic ladders

Is it just us or is there something in the early autumn that really makes you want to prepare a house for winter? This time we want to show you some projects that allow you to work outdoors.

1. Replace the external bulb

Before the dark winter comes, make sure your external bulb has been replaced. If you wait, icy sidewalks and snow-covered roofs will make this job more difficult and dangerous.

2. Clean the drain

This is not one's dream job, but someone needs to do it. The drains we love because they can redirect water from the house and are also a good place to collect unwanted leaves and debris. Clean drains ensure that the roof is free of potential ice dams and rust-not to mention critters!

3. Use rafters for garage storage

Autumn is a good time to tidy up the garage. Store items such as canoes, bicycles, and waists in the rafters in the garage to make the most of your space.

4. Touch up your exterior paint

The exterior paint will eventually peel off. To extend the beauty of your home, take your paint samples (about a quarter the size) to your local hardware store, where paint experts can match your colors and mix new pints or gallons for you. Now you only need a smaller container to pour the paint, a stable hand, a two-inch paint brush and a ladder!

5. Trim the trees

For aesthetic reasons, pruning trees is important and can also promote the growth of strong, healthy trees. Cut off branches that have gone wrong or have died. You will improve the appearance of the yard while making it safer.

6. Clean the windows on the second floor

Do your windows need to be cleaned? Stop the day and let those windows shine as much as possible! Once it freezes, you will be glad that you can clearly see the beauty of the outdoors.

7. Install a swing

Your inner child will thank you!
