HVAC (service guide)
- Run a cooling cycle before the first heat wave; note weak airflow, odd smells, or warm supply air.
- Replace or wash the filter; cedar pollen clogs filters faster than many owners expect.
- Clear leaves and pollen from the outdoor condenser—keep 2–3 feet of side clearance.
Roofing (service guide)
- Walk the roofline from the ground after storms; look for lifted shingles, dented vents, and gutter overflow.
- Check downspouts for granule grit after rain—a sign of shingle wear or recent hail bruising.
- Photograph soft metals (mailbox, gutter strip) if hail passes Williamson County.
Plumbing (service guide)
- Exercise the main water shutoff gently; label it if guests or renters are in the home.
- Inspect hose bibs and irrigation lines after the last freeze risk—slow leaks often show up first on the bill.
- Flush rarely used guest baths in Sun City to keep traps full.
Landscaping (service guide)
- Tune irrigation for spring rains—overwatering on clay soil stresses foundations.
- Trim branches away from the roof and siding before summer storms.
Prep for Georgetown summer (June–August)
- Book an AC tune-up if cooling struggled last July—calendars fill before triple-digit weeks.
- Stock spare filters and know your filter size before peak season.
- Confirm attic insulation and door seals; hot upstairs rooms are often airflow, not just equipment age.
- Budget for repairs vs replacement using our HVAC repair cost guide before peak summer pricing.
