Spring is almost here, and you know what that means? It’s time to move your clocks forward and start on those home maintenance projects that you have been putting off all winter long.


Spring Maintenance Checklist

It’s that time of year again to tackle any outdoor repairs and maintenance that have been put off over the winter. Don't let a lack of maintenance put your home at risk for damage. Here's a comprehensive home maintenance checklist for things that homeowners should do in the spring:

  • Inspect Your Gutters: Spring is the perfect time to remove debris and leaves that may have accumulated in your gutters during winter. Clogged gutters can cause water damage to your home, so it's essential to make sure that they are clean and functioning properly.

  • Pressure Wash Your Home: Winter can leave a lot of dirt, grime, and debris on the exterior of your home. Pressure washing your home can help remove the buildup and leave your home looking clean and fresh

  • Replace the batteries in all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home. Doing this annually ensures that they're functioning correctly and will alert you in case of an emergency.

  • Check your plumbing for leaks and any damage caused by winter weather. Make sure all outdoor faucets are working correctly and turn on your sprinkler system to ensure proper function.

  • Spruce up your Landscaping: Spring is an excellent time to spruce up your landscaping. Trim bushes, trees, and hedges, plant flowers and shrubs, and give your yard a good cleanup.

  • Tune up your AC: Before the heat of summer arrives, have a professional HVAC technician tune up your air conditioner. This will help ensure that it's functioning correctly and that you're not caught in the heat with a malfunctioning AC.

  • Wash Your Windows: Winter weather can leave your windows dirty and smudged. Clean your windows inside and out, so you can enjoy the spring sunshine and bring more light into your home.

  • Clean Your Garage: Spring is an excellent time to declutter and organize your garage. Donate or discard any unwanted items, and organize the remaining items to create more space and make it easier to find what you need.

  • Inspect your roof: Check your roof for any damage caused by winter storms, such as missing or damaged shingles, cracks, or leaks. It's best to repair any damage as soon as possible to prevent further damage to your home.
