Spring is the perfect opportunity for homeowners to prepare their property for the months to come. Here are our top tips to get started:
– Check siding for cracks, peeling or chipped paint, and general wear and tear. Have damaged areas repaired and repainted as needed for lasting protection.
– Clean gutters and downspouts of debris that collected over the winter.
– Check patios and walkways for cracks and any loose bricks or pavers. These are a tripping hazard that needs to be corrected promptly.
– Clean window screens and repair any holes or tears or replace the screen material.
– Check around for damaged tree limbs and branches. If a large tree appears to be damaged, be safe and call a professional to address any issues.
– Inspect the irrigation system for broken sprinkler heads and emitters. Also check for overspray and adjust the system to prevent water waste.
