Fall: freeze prep
Before the first hard freeze, disconnect garden hoses, shut and drain outdoor faucets, and add insulated covers. Weatherstrip drafty doors and recaulk windows while it’s still warm enough for caulk to cure.

Seasonal work in Gretna
Gretna’s new neighborhoods see move-ins all year, especially in summer — and the first winter in a new home is when settling cracks and nail pops tend to appear.
Winter: cold-weather problems
Omaha winters bring stretches well below freezing. Pipes on exterior walls and in unheated spaces are the ones at risk; a split hose bib or a frozen line usually shows up as a leak once it thaws.
Spring: storm cleanup
Spring thunderstorms bring wind and hail that drop limbs and scatter debris across yards. Branches and storm debris get cut down, loaded and hauled away.
Summer: moving season
Late spring through summer is peak moving season, especially at month-end when leases turn over. Humidity also swells wood doors — the ones that stick in July.
FAQ
Gretna questions
Can you set up my new Gretna home?
Yes. TVs, shelves, curtain rods, blinds, furniture assembly and fixture upgrades can all be grouped into one move-in visit.
Do you fix nail pops in new construction?
Yes. Nail pops are common in a new home’s first years. Each is reset, secured with a screw, and refinished so it disappears under paint.
