Lyle's Winter Walk-Through
The seven checks I run on an old house before the first freeze, in the order I walk the house, with the verdict boxes and the price of every fix. It is a page torn out of The Old-House Comfort Manual, so below the seven you will find three more checks the way they appear in the book.
- Cheapest mistake first. Most of the fixes cost nothing.
- Nothing on the page is higher than a step stool.
- Print it, walk the house on the first cold Saturday, mark the verdicts.
Four short emails follow, one check each, then I leave your inbox alone.
