Spring is a great season to clean up several areas of your home. It also presents a good opportunity to check for any damage that the winter weather may have caused. Some of the areas you should pay close attention to are your gutters, chimneys and windows. Read on to learn how you can properly care for them in the springtime.
Gutters
Keeping your gutters clean means preventing pests and other critters from making a home in your roof or gutter system. Furthermore, with spring storms just around the corner, the presence of leaves, twigs and other debris inside your gutters could cause blockages in the gutter system and affect its efficiency in draining water. This can later on cause bigger problems for you.
Chimneys
If your chimney did a lot of work during winter, it’s best to perform a thorough chimney sweep during the spring instead of waiting for fall. In addition to the chimney or smoke residue, dirt may continue to build up during the warmer seasons. Trees will likely bloom once again, and leaves and small branches may find their way into your chimney. Make sure to have your chimney inspected for any damage as well.
Windows
Make the most of the sun by ensuring your windows are squeaky clean and the glass crystal clear. Window cleaning is often considered an easy job. But if you want to avoid damaging the glass or if you want to ensure a thorough clean, you might want to consider hiring professionals for the job. They have the right tools and equipment to carry out the task so you can rest assured that it will be handled properly.
