Now that Spring is here, it's time to go over our Spring Home Maintenance Checklist.

Inspect for Winter Damage

While we’ve all been hibernating, our homes may have taken a few lickings this winter. Now that the warmer weather is here, inspect your home and take measure. Some things you should look out for include: loose or missing shingles, damaged siding, gutter or downspout damage, cracks in the sidewalks or driveway and check all outside plumbing.\

Time to start your working on that yard again.

Pick up all those fallen limbs and any leaves that are still hanging around. Trim those trees and shrubs. Get your lawn mower ready or call your landscaper. It’s that time of year again. If your grass is looking patchy, this is the time to plant those seeds and get your lawn ready for summer

Clean Out Gutters and Downspouts

You want to do this at least a couple of times a year to prevent damage to your home and foundation. Now that Spring is here, you want to clear out all the obstructions and debris that winter left behind before the start of Spring showers. Don’t forget to clear out the downspouts and any extensions too.

Schedule that seasonal HVAC service

Preventative maintenance is the key here. Schedule your bi-annual HVAC service to make sure your AC is ready for summer. Then in the fall, you’ll do the same for heat in the winter.

Spring Cleaning.

This is a great time to clean your home inside and out. Open your windows and clean neglected areas. Get rid of all that accumulated dust, dander and allergens. Pressure wash your home’s exterior and wash away all the winter grime.

Make a list and take care of small problems before they become big headaches or call PM&R by Alert Construction and we’ll provide an onsite assessment, recommendations and a free estimate!
