It's Spring!

Spring is here! That means it’s time to stop hemmin' and hawin' and get after some home maintenance projects. A few ideas to get you started:⁣

⁣

Indoors: ⁣

⁣

• Get down and dirty by scrubbing those baseboards, trim, doors, walls, and handles.⁣

• Scared to look at those air filters after the long winter? Take a deep breath and swap them out with fresh new ones.⁣

• Clean the blinds slate-by-slate (yes, it’s a PAIN) and wash, or easier yet, dry-clean window treatments.⁣

• Get the grime and slime off kitchen cabinets with a top-to-bottom wipe down.⁣

• Flip mattresses and, while you’re at it, wash ALL your bed linens (mattress pads and pillow shams included).⁣

⁣

Outdoors:⁣

⁣

• Have a look at your gutters and downspouts for winter damage and debris. (You'll def want a buddy to hold the ladder.)⁣

• Inspect wooden decks, railings, windowsills, and steps for damage or rot.⁣

• Pressure wash patios, decks, driveway, and outdoor furniture. (Pressure washing is awesome. Seriously. You’ve gotta try it.)⁣

• Tune-up any lawn maintenance equipment (and hope that everything will crank)!⁣

• Clear the front entryway of bugs and cobwebs. Go on and throw up a colorful spring wreath and welcome mat, too!⁣

Whip your home into shape ASAP so you’ll be ready to kick up your feet when that to-die-for spring weather comes a' knockin'!
