For beginner DIYers, setting up gutters is a breeze! Start by measuring the size of the roof and purchasing a gutter system to fit it. Then, use a ladder or other safe way to access the roof and begin installing your new gutters according to manufacturer instructions. Once installed, make sure to clean them regularly so they don’t become clogged and damaged.

Even for those with little experience, caulk windows and doors is simple to execute. Start by removing any old caulk that may be around the window or door frames, then use a caulking gun to apply new caulk along the edges of the frames where needed. Make sure to apply the caulk evenly and wipe away any excess before it dries.
