PITTSBURGH (KDKA) When the weather is crisp, leaves are falling, and football is on TV, it can be easy to ignore fall chores.

But, if you want to stay cozy and avoid costly problems this winter, you better get to work.

Angies List said there are three projects every homeowner should cross off their checklist before winter arrives.

Gutter cleaning isnt glamorous, but its one of the most important jobs on any fall to-do list.

Your gutters should not be ignored because leaves will gather there, which will lead to mold as well as bugs, even ice damming in the winter. And if youre like some people, you might actually get a garden growing in your gutters, which can be pretty embarrassing. So, taking care of them can lead to better health of your home, especially your roof, Angie Hicks with Angies List said.

Whether you do it yourself or hire a pro, dont neglect the downspouts when cleaning.

You also want to make sure that all of your gutters are actually nailed in properly and look at your gutter boards and make sure that they are sealed, Elden Foltz, a handyman, said.

Once your gutters are clear, turn your attention to sealing drafts around windows and doors. Walk through your home with a lit candle or stick of incense to see where cold air is seeping in.

PORTLAND, OR (KPTV) -

With heavy rain and wind blowing into town, Portlanders prepared for the storm by protecting their homes.

It's the household chore that most people hate to do: cleaning out your gutters; but, the longer you wait, the harder it gets.

While some people hire landscapers this time of year, the cost can be too much for some. There are a couple of DIY ways to make it that much easier on you.

A quick check of Pinterest and YouTube brought up dozens of options, but some of the top ways to clean out the gutters may include things you might already have in your garage.

Option 1: The leaf blower with PVC piping

One suggested way was to use a leaf blower and attach some PVC piping to it.

The piping itself extends directly to the gutters, but the downside is that the debris and muck blows around on to the ground.

Option 2: Shop-Vac and gutter clean-up kit

Another DIY way to clean out the gutters uses a similar method, only it incorporates a Shop-Vac and a gutter clean-up kit that you can pick up from a hardware store for around $20.
