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.

La Vista homes and what they need
La Vista incorporated around 1960, and much of its housing dates from those first decades — ranch and split-level homes on regular suburban lots — with newer apartments and townhomes added more recently around La Vista City Centre. Homes this age have usually had a few rounds of updates, but bathroom fixtures, interior doors and basements are often due for the next one.

Seasonal work in La Vista
Older La Vista ranches with outdoor faucets on exposed walls benefit from fall freeze prep — disconnect hoses and cover the faucets before the first hard freeze.
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.
