Best Home Updates to Make This Spring

As the seasons shift into more sunlight, more daylight and more dreams of hanging out outdoors, it is time to gather up your spring project checklist. We have gathered a list of ideas for your home’s exterior to give you a jumpstart on your springtime preparations.

A new coat: As the snow melts and you see more and more of your home’s exterior, it is time to check on any wood surfaces around your home. From decks to fencing, your outdoor wood elements can take a beating from ice and snow. The end of winter is a great time to see if you will need to paint or stain any of these surfaces and add it to your to-do list.

A new view: Wintry weather can take a toll on your windows and leave behind lots of gunk and grime. Spring cleaning is always a great time to clear up your view with window cleaning. This is also an optimal opportunity to really review your windows’ current state. Are there any cracks in the glass or wood? Is there a lot of weathering on any wood edges? If your windows are beyond repair and too old to refresh, you should consider some new windows for a great springtime view! Our crew works on single-hung and double-hung styles as well as picture windows. Tilt-in options will make cleaning your windows the next time even easier – especially on your upper floors.

Roofing review: Unfortunately, the fluctuation in temperatures and build-up of snow can cause damage to your roof. An inspection is always a good idea as winter fades into spring, so that you do not have any leaks occur during the rainy days of spring. We can take a look at your shingles to see if there are any that need to be replaced or if you need a new roof before the spring weather arrives.

Cosmetic face-lift: A couple simple ways to upgrade your home’s exterior that also do not cost a ton are a new mailbox and new address numbers. Personalizing your address display can punch up your doorway or entryway with a fresh look. There are many styles and options available. Adding landscaping around your mailbox or painting it a new color are other options to consider. A whole new box can boost your curb appeal.
