Winter is coming to Thornbury, and your cottage needs to be buttoned up properly. Thornbury's mix of waterfront cottages and heritage homes means unique maintenance challenges — older plumbing, stone foundations, and lakefront exposure. Season Turn handles your entire fall closing — pipe blowout, water drain-down, HVAC shutdown, dock removal, and a 40-point winterization checklist.
From $199 (condo) to $899 (waterfront + dock)
A botched winterization is how pipes burst. If water isn't fully drained, one cold snap turns a shortcut into a $30,000 insurance claim.

Local Tip
Heritage homes along the harbour often have original plumbing from the 1940s–60s — freeze protection is critical since replacement parts are hard to source.
