Home Maintenance Tips

For many of us, our home is our largest investment. Regular home maintenance is crucial for a home’s longevity, health, and safety. Paying attention to exterior conditions, appliances, heating and cooling, plumbing, security, and electrical systems will help prevent mishaps, save money, and protect your home equity.

Rebuilding Together of Greater Charlotte is proud to launch our Home Maintenance Education Series. Each month we will share tips on how to complete your checklist item of the month.
