With new home ownership comes new responsibilities - especially if you want to properly maintain and protect your home. But with so many home services available to you and your family, how do you decide which are the best home services to invest in? To help you decide on which home services you'll want to sign up for and which ones you can afford to skip, our Baton Rouge professional movers at All My Sons Moving & Storage have compiled this helpful list. Enjoy!

Pest Control - One of the last things you'll want to deal with after moving to Baton Rouge and into your new home is a bug or rodent problem. Find a reputable pest control company and have them come over to analyze all of the interior and exterior spaces in your home. If they notice signs of bug or rodent problems, they will be able to take care of it right away and put your mind at ease.

Air Duct Cleaning - Our local Baton Rouge movers suggest making an appointment to have the air ducts in your home cleaned and serviced soon after moving in. Continue to have your air duct system cleaned every year to maintain energy efficiency, save money, and have clean air for you and your family to breathe in.

Alarm System - Have a reliable alarm system installed in your new home to ensure the safety of you and your family after moving to Baton Rouge. You can elect to have a simple system put in that allows you to arm your home whether you're staying in or heading out; or, you can choose a sophisticated alarm system that allows you to arm and disarm your home from your smart phone and see what's going on in your home while you're away with live camera feed.

Carpet Cleaning - The truth is, your carpeting may look move-in ready, but you really don't know what all has taken place on it in the past. So, start off fresh in your new home and have all of your carpeting professionally cleaned before you move in.

Landscaping - Investing in your landscape will not only help you and your family start to feel at home in your new neighborhood, but it will also increase the value of your home by adding curb appeal. You can find the right landscaper for the job by locating other homes with landscapes you like and asking the homeowner who they used.

Professional Painters - Skip the headache of taping off and painting the walls of your home and hire professional painters to complete the job. As our professional Baton Rouge movers are trained and knowledgeable in full-service moves, professional painters are proficient in painting both small and large spaces.

Electrical - Find a reputable electrical company and ask them to perform an energy efficiency audit of your home after moving to Baton Rouge. Your electrician may tell you to add insulation in your attic or upgrade your electrical panel to save money in the long run.
