Whether you are preparing your home to sell or simply trying to get organized this Spring, The Lowry Team West Chester Ohio has tips for you. Keeping up on your house’s interior and exterior maintenance could save you time and money in the future.
There a number of things to do to maintain the exterior of your home. Each Spring you should check your roof for any damage such as missing shingles. Also, clean leaves and debris from the gutters and downspouts. Walk around your home’s foundation and take note of any large cracks that could lead to water or foundation damage. Spring is a good time to have the driveway re-sealed, filling in any cracks that appeared over the cold Winter. Clean all of your windows and screens. Put those storm windows away for the Summer! Have a HVAC company check and tune up your air conditioner. Use a power washer to clean patios, decks and siding. Stain and seal your deck in preparation for grilling out with friends and family.
Inside your home, vacuum and clean the rugs and carpets. Wipe down walls, baseboards and crown moldings. Take down all of your window treatments. Depending on the type of fabric you may be able to wash them yourself or you may need to have them cleaned professionally. Dust ceiling fans and reverse the blades direction for Spring. Clean lampshades and replace light bulbs with energy efficient bulbs. Spring is a perfect time to clean and sort out your pantry, medicine cabinets and closets. Wipe down shelves and throw away expired medicine. Put Winter clothes away and sort through items that can be donated.
