Spring is a great time to catch up on home maintenance tasks and ensure that vital parts of your home are still in good condition. In this post, Gutter Helmet® of Cookeville, a trusted gutter guard installer in the area, lists some of the areas in your home that you should pay special attention to.
Windows
Make sure that your interior enjoys plenty of sunshine during springtime by keeping your windows squeaky clean. You can hire a professional for this job or opt to do it yourself. If you decide to do it yourself, ensure that you have all the tools and equipment needed for the task and exercise caution if you need to climb a ladder.
Exterior Walls
Use a power washer or a hose with a jet attachment to remove dirt and grime on your exterior walls. Take extra care when cleaning recessed areas, the tops of the walls and the walls bordered by your plants or lawn. Don’t forget to consult with an expert regarding the best cleaning method for your exterior cladding. Some siding materials may be damaged by a power washer.
Gutters
Get rid of the leaves, branches and other debris that have accumulated in your gutters. When left unchecked, these could potentially result in clogging and affect the performance of your gutter system. For a long-term solution, consider investing in a gutter protection system. Call a gutter guard installer to learn about the products best suited to your needs.
Garage
Don’t forget to clean up your garage as well. Sweep the floors, wipe the shelves and tidy up the garage door. Take a look at the springs and hinges, and add oil to these components to keep them operating smoothly.
