Vehicle bulbs
I always carry a spare set of spare bulbs in the van I use for painting and carpet cleaning, essential now that the nights are drawing in to keep visible on the roads

I see quite a few cars on the road with headlights and brake lights out, which can be dangerous and of course technically it's a road traffic offence.

Well worth getting a universal set and keeping them in the glove box of a vehicle just in case.

Light bulbs
When carrying out painting work and carpet cleaning, I find occasionally that a light bulb needs replacing.

Many people don't carry spares of these in their homes and then struggle to find a bulb to replace the one that needs to be replaced.

I always carry spot lights; however it's worth keeping spare bulbs ready for when one goes, as with the winter coming, if a bulb goes in the evening or at an inconvenient time such as on Christmas day, you maybe facing a dark room

Heating
I recently had a full house paint to do after the previous tenant moved out.

This was a four bedroom house and the occupier turned heating off in three of the bedrooms and one of the downstairs rooms to save money.

The lack of heating caused the plaster tape to fail and peel off, which caused several hundred pounds worth of damage to both the walls and carpets over time

It's always worth keeping the heating on low even in rooms you don't use as the cold and damp can cause real damage to your home

Home maintenance
Many of the jobs we carry out, both carpet cleans and painting works can be as a result of no home maintenance being done, a recent job was because of a leaking radiator that had been left and developed into a more serious issue.

Always worth keeping on top of home maintenance as it pays off in the long run

Smoke Alarms
I've been to a few homes recently to carry out painting and carpet cleaning where the smoke alarms have been beeping due to low batteries.

Many people don't have spare batteries and then eventually the battery completely drains leaving the batteries not working

It's important that you change the batteries when they start beeping with low battery or the entire unit itself as it really can save lives in a fire situation
