Spring marks an increase in outdoor activity. De-winterizing the home and assessing its condition are primary goals. Some suggested spring maintenance activities include:
- Cleaning gutters
- Roofing inspection
- Exterior paint inspection
- Lawn and landscape maintenance:
- Rake lightly. Raking too vigorously in the spring can stir up weed seeds.
- Feed lawn to strengthen roots.
- Shrub and tree pruning (varies by species).
- Exterior window/door inspection
- Irrigation start-up. Make sure you follow proper procedures.
- A/C inspection, tune-up and filter replacement
- Plumbing inspection
