Pascack Valley in the Fall is our favorite time of year! We love the beauty of the changing seasons. The shades of Fall bring out an abundance of vibrant colors in the beautiful trees that are synonymous with the Pascack Valley.
With the beauty of the falling leaves comes concerns of Home maintenance tasks for the upcoming winter months. Whether you're a Pascack Valley homeowner thinking of Selling or a Buyer considering purchasing a home in the Pascack Valley, you'll want to be aware of these important home tips.
The following is HammersTeam's list of Home Tips To Follow:
1. Keep gutters free of debris such as leaves. When gutters remain clogged, water seepage into a home's foundation can cause very unpleasant and costly results.
2. If your home has a Basement, always keep your dehumidifier running. Even when Summer is over, moisture is in the air and mold can grow on basement walls.
3. Check to make sure all gutter leaders are properly connected. Once the snow starts to fly, this may become impossible to do.
4. Now is a good time to make sure that the soil surrounding your home gently slopes away from the perimeter. This will aid in keeping moisture from pooling around the foundation.
5. Check all caulking seals around doors and windows.
6. Have your furnace checked now before the thermometer drops.
7.Leaves should be removed from all garden beds and brought to the curbside, as per your town ordinances.
8. Trim all bushes and trees - particularly those that are growing too close to your home.
9. Clear all porches, decks and pathways of any plants or lawn furniture before the fall and winter winds begin to blow.
10. Be sure to wipe down your lawn furniture before storing it for the winter months.
11. Winterize pools, sprinkler systems and get all outdoor painting jobs done now. Especially those decks, fences and porches.
12. Daylight Savings Time ends the first week of November so get ready to change your batteries on all Smoke and Carbon Monoxide Detectors! It'll be here before you know it.

Bergen County New Jersey Weather Report from your hometown Realtors,
The HammersTeam. The weather here in Bergen County New Jersey for today October 17, 2008 promises to be in the mid 50's. We awoke this morning to what appears to be the onset of Fall in the air. The skies are blue but if you were heading out early this morning you needed a jacket to stay warm
As I drove over to River Vale on this crisp Fall morning via Emerson, the school traffic on Main Street stopped to allow a family of deer to cross the road. There were about six of them and they were all sizes. The deer came from the woods near the Emerson Centennial Park and crossed over to the woods on the other side of the Emerson High School.
Sights such as these are common in the Pascack Valley area of Bergen County New Jersey. We are reminded that Fall is here and the beauty of the season is all around us. Driving along Bergen County roads during the Fall season is like driving under an umbrella of color! Today promises to be a Great Day in Bergen County New Jersey!
