Keep your home in peak condition with these critical homeowner tasks. At Barefoot Construction, we believe proactive care protects your investment. We serve homeowners in East Bethel and the North Metro with expert maintenance advice. Minnesota weather changes quickly. Therefore, performing regular checks on your roof, deck, and siding prevents small issues from becoming major repairs.

We focus on high-impact seasonal duties. We recommend cleaning your composite deck every spring with mild soap and water. This prevents organic growth and maintains the slip-resistant surface. We also suggest inspecting your roof for loose shingles after heavy winds. Our team prioritizes “High-Performance Living.” This means checking your window seals annually to ensure energy efficiency. These simple steps keep your home comfortable and reduce your utility costs.

We support your homeownership journey beyond the initial build. Our team provides clear guidance on managing snow loads and gutter debris. We prioritize clear communication to help you understand your home’s unique needs. Whether you have a new custom addition or a cedar deck, we help you maintain its beauty. Trust our local experts to guide you through your annual home care routine.

Top Priority Homeowner Tasks:

  • Deck Care: Remove leaves and debris from between boards to ensure proper drainage.
  • Exterior Check: Inspect caulking and flashing around doors to prevent water intrusion.
  • Basement Monitoring: Check your sump pump regularly to protect your finished living space.
