Canadian Winter Prep
Canadian winters are brutal on homes. Frozen pipes, ice dams, skyrocketing heating bills, and damaged decks are completely avoidable with the right preparation. A few weekend projects in fall can save thousands in repairs and cut your energy costs all season long.
Must-Do Winter Prep Tasks for Ontario Homeowners
Insulate windows and doors, install automatic porch lights and heated cable systems, winterize outdoor faucets, clean gutters, and protect your deck or patio with the right sealants. Small upgrades like draft stoppers, smart thermostats, and motion-sensor exterior lighting make a huge difference when the temperature drops below -20°C.
Follow our proven Canadian winter prep checklist and keep your home warm, family safe, and your heating bill under control all winter long.
