Extreme Spring Cleaning Tips

Spring cleaning is the ideal time to transition into home repairs, as deep cleaning often reveals hidden damage from winter, such as leaky faucets, faulty drywall, or worn caulking. Tackling these maintenance tasks during the spring prevents small issues from becoming costly repairs later, improves home efficiency, and boosts curb appeal.

Key Areas for Combined Cleaning and Repair:

• Exterior & Structure: Inspect the roof for winter damage, clear gutters to prevent water overflow, and walk around the home to look for cracks or chipped paint.
• Walls & Floors: Wash down walls and baseboards, but also look for and repair damage to drywall.

Common “Spring Cleaning to Repair” Projects

• Painting: Freshen up siding, doors, or interior rooms.
• Deck/Fence Repair: Power wash and seal wooden structures to prevent moisture damage.
• Window Maintenance: Clean windows, check for drafts, and update caulking. 
• Roof/Gutters: While clearing your gutters check for any issues with gutters and roofing.

• Use the Inspection Period: Treat the cleaning process as an inspection; take note of any structural issues or broken items.
• Prioritize Safety: If you find issues related to electricity, structural integrity, or complex plumbing, hire a professional to avoid safety risks.
• Declutter First: Clear out items to make space for necessary, larger repairs.
• Donate Materials: Use the clean-out process to donate leftover, usable building materials or furniture to places like Habitat for Humanity ReStore.
