As the seasons change, homeowners can face a variety of challenges that require careful attention and preparation. Each season brings its own set of conditions that can affect the safety, comfort, and maintenance of your home. While winter this year may have been mild, the cold months introduce unique challenges. Freezing temperatures can cause significant damage if not properly addressed. Understanding these challenges and taking proactive steps to prepare your property is essential to ensuring a safe and hassle-free spring.

​Did you know that March is one of the most crucial months for outdoor home maintenance?

While the cool temps may have you staying indoors, March presents the perfect opportunity to tackle some important outdoor tasks that could save you from costly repairs later on. This is when these problems are at their peak, making it a great time to clear your gutters, check for buildup, and inspect your outdoor areas for any potential issues. Paying attention to your property now can save you time, effort, and money later. By doing the maintenance now, you’ll be prepared for the upcoming spring.
Let’s dive into some key outdoor maintenance tips that will keep your home safe and secure through March and beyond! 
​

How to Clear Your Gutters:
  • Use a strong ladder to safely reach your gutters.
  • Remove leaves and debris with your hands or a scoop.
  • Hose down the gutters to make sure water flows freely.
  • Clear any blockages in the downspouts using a hose or snake.
​
How to Inspect Outdoor Areas for Problems:
  • Walk around and check for damage from snow or storms (like fallen branches).
  • Check for cracks in your driveway or walkways.
  • Check outdoor lightbulbs to make sure they still work properly.
  • Look for exposed pipes and wrap them with insulation to prevent freezing.

How to Prepare Your Property for Spring
  • Rake up leaves or debris from your yard to help new grass grow.
  • Prune fruit trees and other seasonal bushes.
  • Check and clean your outdoor furniture when pulling it out.
  • ​Start planning for new plants or garden updates.
