Spring cleaning has likely already become underway in your
household. What you may not have given much thought however is spring
maintenance for
your home. There are several things that folks generally check around
their homes before the winter months but there are also a few things
you need to check in the early spring months. Below is a
spring maintenance check list for your home.
- Springtime
means it is time to start mowing your lawn again. If your lawn mower
has been outside all winter due to lack of storage space you may need to
do a bit of maintenance on it before you get it going. Sharpening the
blade is always a good idea before a new season so that you get a nice
clean cut on the grass. It’s also a good idea to check the oil on your
lawn mower before beginning to use it for the warm season.
- Spring is
a great time to check your house for worn paint areas such as your
shutters. If you find worn or chipped paint on your house what better
time to fix that than in the typically perfect weather of spring.
- Be sure
to check your crawl space vents for any debris that may have accumulated
there over the winter months. Also you want to keep your eye out for
any animals such as snakes or rodents that may have made their home in
your crawl space over the last few months. Get rid of anything that
doesn’t belong and repair anything that may be broken such as the vent
covers.
- Get your flower beds and any garden areas ready for spring
by cleaning out any debris that may have accumulated and trimming back
any old growth. It is also a good time to add mulch to your flower beds
and fertilizer to your garden.
The above list of spring
maintenance ideas is just a start in
the right direction. There is certainly much more that you need to do
in and around your house before the summer time approaches. Once you
get started with these, you will likely find and think of more things
that need to be done.
