Top 5 Property Maintenance Tips for Norfolk Homes | JWH

Keeping your home in good condition doesn't just make life more comfortable - it also saves you money in the long run. At JWH Property Maintenance, we’ve seen how small problems can quickly turn into bigger ones if left untreated. That’s why regular upkeep is so important.

Here are our top 5 property maintenance tips to help Norfolk homeowners protect their homes all year round.

1. Keep an Eye on Your Roof

Your roof is your home’s first line of defence against the elements, but it often gets overlooked. Broken tiles, slipped slates, or blocked gutters can all cause leaks and water damage. A quick visual check every season, plus professional repairs when needed, will keep your roof strong and watertight.

2. Look After Your Gutters and Drains

In Norfolk, we get our fair share of rain. Blocked gutters or drains can cause serious issues, including damp, mould, and even structural damage. Clear them regularly, especially after autumn leaves fall, to prevent costly repairs later on.

3. Care for Your Garden and Outdoor Spaces

Patios, fences, and decking can wear down over time, especially in coastal or exposed areas. Regular cleaning, sealing, or small repairs will keep them looking good and lasting longer. A well-maintained garden also adds value and kerb appeal to your home.

4. Check Windows and Doors for Drafts

Old or damaged windows and doors can let in cold air and drive up energy bills. Resealing, repairing frames, or replacing panes where needed will make your home warmer and more efficient. It’s a simple fix that makes a big difference.

5. Plan Ahead for Bigger Projects

Whether it’s an extension, a renovation, or a new patio, the best projects start with good planning. Working with a trusted local company like JWH Property Maintenance means you’ll get advice tailored to Norfolk homes and conditions — helping your ideas become reality with less stress.
