What to Inspect in Your Seattle Kitchen Before Winter
Seattle’s damp fall air can hide problems until they’re expensive fixes. Start by checking under sinks for slow leaks, common in older homes near Lake Washington, and test your garbage disposal for unusual noises. If your fridge hums louder than usual, it might need a seal replacement before energy bills rise. For homes in Mercer Island or Kirkland, older copper pipes may need insulation to prevent freezing. Our team can spot these issues during a quick walkthrough, and we’ll explain what’s urgent versus what can wait. Licensed and insured, we handle everything from minor repairs to full kitchen remodeling projects.
