Bye-bye, winter! The birds are singing, bees are buzzing, and early flowers are starting to bloom—it’s time to embrace glorious spring and give the home and yard a thorough going-over after months of harsh weather. Hit the ground running with a DIY checklist to make the most of these few weeks before the summer—and prime outdoor living season—arrives.
If the home was properly prepped in the fall, it should be a spring breeze to make short work of roof and gutter cleaning and minor repairs. Also, schedule concrete pressure washing; air conditioning pre-check and service; and inspections and repairs for items such as irrigation systems, screens, decks, and porches. Then move on to some fun updates such as a new mailbox or house numbers.
