Caulk around windows and
doors when the temperature drops in colder months. It may seem like a
small step, but this low-cost fix (a tube of caulk will only set you
back about five dollars) will increase the comfort of your home and
deliver a big bang for your buck. All you need is a steady hand.
Start
by scraping away any loose or cracked caulk to create a clean surface
to work with. Then, with a caulk gun, form a tight bead of caulk along
the edges of the surfaces, filling any openings or cracks. Next, with
your finger, press the caulk down into the openings and smooth to seal
the cracks. Once it sets up, you're ready to prime and paint.
