Get Your Home Ready for Spring
After months of cold weather, your home needs attention. A thorough spring maintenance routine prevents small issues from becoming expensive problems.
Exterior Checks
- Roof Inspection: Look for missing or damaged tiles. Check for signs of moss or algae growth.
- Gutters & Downpipes: Clear debris from gutters. Check downpipes are draining properly away from the foundation.
- Driveway & Paths: Repair any cracks caused by frost. Consider pressure washing to remove winter grime.
- Fencing: Check for loose panels or rotting posts. Treat timber fencing with preservative.
- External Paintwork: Inspect window frames, doors, and fascia boards for peeling paint.
Interior Checks
- Heating System: Service your boiler before the off-season. Bleed radiators if needed.
- Smoke & CO Detectors: Test all alarms and replace batteries.
- Plumbing: Check under sinks for leaks. Inspect exposed pipes for signs of damage.
- Windows & Doors: Check seals and weatherstripping. Clean tracks and lubricate hinges.
- Deep Clean: Spring clean carpets, upholstery, and hard-to-reach areas.
Garden & Outdoor Living
- Patio: Clean and reseal paving stones. Repair any uneven slabs.
- Drainage: Test outdoor drains are flowing freely.
- Garden Furniture: Clean, repair, and treat outdoor furniture.
