Spring brings with itself an essence of freshness and life. Right after the long winters, the snow-covered seemingly lifeless trees shed their dullness and adorn themselves with new leaves.

 

Just like nature wears a clean bright look in spring, we too add life to our homes by cleaning them and fixing problems caused by the previous season. The harsh weather of the winter season causes several changes in our homes which need to be put right.

Let us explore some of the spring home maintenance tips we should keep in mind for the well-being of our homes.

 

1) Clean gutters & downspouts: Cleaning the gutter and downspouts are essential to avoid water damage to your home. Check for any leaves, gunk, and debris in them and clean it with a garden hose. While cleaning the gutters use a proper ladder and if your home is more than one story, hire professional help to do the job. If there are any leaks, fix them with epoxy or caulking. Make sure that your downspouts are away from the facade or foundation of your house. Clean gutters and downspouts are good for your home.

 

2) Inspect your roof: If your home is not multi-storied, use a ladder to inspect the roof, or else use binoculars. The roof is of prime importance for a home when it comes to defense against bad weather or water damage. So, check the soffits, eaves and surface flashing and conduct a thorough cleaning and damage fixing session. If your roof is steep, get professional help. Delays in repairing roof damages can land you in big trouble during showers and storms.

 

3) Check the fireplace chimney: The fireplace chimney inspection once every year is a way of preventive maintenance. The inspection can spot the damages before they result in something bigger. It can save you hundreds of bucks and also ensure your safety.
