Spring Home Maintenance Checklist - Protect Your Investment by Staying on top of Ongoing Maintenance!

The flowers and trees are waking up, and it's time to help your home do the same! A little spring prep goes a long way toward enjoying the season and getting ready for summer.

Here are quick tips to tackle this spring:

Clean Smart

Always work top-to-bottom to save time and energy. If you start with the floor, you may have to clean that again later! 

Inspect Critical Areas

Give your exterior siding, roof, and flashing a thorough check for any winter damage or necessary repairs. You may get good stretches of weather now for exterior painting. Protect your investment! 

Check the Attic

Good time to poke your head into the attic crawl to see if any leaks may have developed. 

Gutters and Roof

This can be a good time of year to clean debris front the roof and gutters that might have accumulated in winter storms. 

Boost Curb Appeal

Tidy up flower beds, fertilize, and get stakes ready for those summer growers.  Pressure wash the driveway and walks.

Refresh Your Outdoors

Add some colorful decor to your patio or deck to shake off the cold and welcome more time outside.

Deck Repairs

Ideally your deck will be ready for summer so that you aren’t making repairs while trying to barbecue.

Ongoing maintenance is part of home ownership. If you would like a maintenance list for all four seasons, reach out and we’ll send that as a pdf or hard copy!
