Spring is here, which means it’s time for spring cleaning! Here are the areas of your home that you need to pay extra attention to this spring:

1. Garden Beds

Don’t allow decaying leaves and twigs to detract attention from the lovely flowers that will be blooming soon. Rake away foliage and other debris and gather it into a compost pile before spring is in full swing.

2. Lawn

Before long, the grass on your lawn will start to grow as well, which is why now is a good time to reseed your lawn and apply fertilizer. Don’t forget to trim overgrown bushes and trees. Severe storms in spring and summer might cause excess foliage and flimsy branches to fall into your gutters.

3. Gutters

You should regularly clean your gutters to prevent foliage and other debris from clogging your gutters and causing rainwater to spill onto your siding and foundation. Don’t have time to clean your gutters? Installing gutter guards can help. Gutter guards prevent leaves from entering and clogging your gutters. Gutter Helmet® receives rave gutter cover reviews because it’s the only brand on the market with a Never Clean Your Gutters® guarantee.

4. Exterior Walls

Make sure to give your siding a good wash after winter, which can be especially hard on your exterior. The freeze-thaw cycle may have created cracks in your siding, so inspect it carefully and address any damage promptly.

5. Fence

Wear and tear from exposure to the elements can cause damage to wood components. Inspect your wood fence for signs of rot or cracks.
