The faucet that drips all night
A dripping faucet isn't just noise — a single slow drip wastes thousands of gallons a year and inflates your water bill. Replacing a worn washer, cartridge, or supply line is a straightforward repair that pays for itself quickly and avoids the water damage that comes from letting a supply line deteriorate.
Weatherstripping that's given up
The draft under a door or around a window frame that you feel in January is money leaving the house. Replacing failed weatherstripping and sealing gaps with proper caulk stops infiltration and is one of the best-value home maintenance tasks available, especially in Silver Spring's cold winters.
Deck boards that have seen better years
A deck that hasn't been maintained develops loose boards, popped fasteners, and rail posts that move. None of these are cosmetic — a board that gives underfoot or a rail that shifts when leaned on is a safety issue. Addressing deck maintenance before a summer of use prevents the bigger repair.
Fence panels that aren't staying put
Fence panels that have come loose from posts, gates that sag, and sections that have heaved over winter are common in Silver Spring's expansive soil. A fence maintenance visit tightens hardware, resets posts that have shifted, and extends the useful life of the existing fence without full replacement.
Caulk that's failed around the tub or windows
Caulk separating from a tub surround or window frame lets water into the wall cavity, where it stays. Recaulking is inexpensive when it's maintenance; by the time water staining appears on the ceiling below, the repair is a different order of magnitude. AR and Sons removes the old material cleanly and applies a lasting bead.
