HOME IMPROVEMENT

Tom Kraeutler’s Hibernation Checklist!

One Weekend of Strategic Fix Ups Can Help Create a Whole Winter of Comfort

Fall is the ideal time to undertake home improvements both indoors and out because it represents the “goldilocks” season – not too hot and not too cold.  Whether you are preparing for mud and moisture, insuring against power outages, or taking care of the little things before it gets colder, the Money Pit team can help during the vital period for home fix-ups.

Home Improvement Expert Tom Kraeutler will bring your audience up to speed on the latest trends, and provide tips on how to make your home smarter this fall.  Tom will demonstrate:

  • Prepare for Power Outages – Portable generators can help out in a pinch and power your next tailgate party.
  • “Winterproof” Flooring – The latest in composite flooring materials can bolster even the toughest mudrooms and kitchens.
  • Improve your Water Quality at the Source – New filters soften and descale your entire water supply for performance and taste.
  • Let there Be Light – Motion sensing switches illuminate basements, bathrooms, garages, and other spaces that stay dark in winter months.

Tom Kraeutler is co-host of the nationally syndicated home improvement radio program The Money Pit, and author of My Home, My Money Pit:  Your Guide to Every Home Improvement Adventure.  He earned his home improvement stripes as a professional home inspector, amassing over 20 years of experience learning how houses are put together, and how they fall apart!
