SPRING CLEANING AND DECLUTTERING
• Deep-Clean Carpets and Upholstery. Hire a professional or rent a steam cleaner to freshen up your carpets, rugs, and upholstered furniture.
• Organize Closets and Storage. Go through your clothes, shoes, and other household items. Donate or sell what you don’ t need.
• Clean Windows and Curtains. Let more natural light into your home by cleaning windows and washing or replacing curtains.
UPGRADING OUTDOOR SPACE
• Install a Fire Pit. Create a cozy outdoor space for evening relaxation. You can purchase a pre-made fire pit or build one yourself.
• Update Outdoor Furniture and Lighting. Refresh your outdoor furniture with cushions and pillows and add string lights or lanterns to set the mood.
• Build a Raised Garden Bed. If you have a green thumb, create a raised garden bed for vegetables, herbs, or flowers.
• Add an Outdoor Kitchen or BBQ Area. Take your outdoor entertaining to the next level with a built-in BBQ, a countertop for prep, and storage for outdoor cooking tools.
HOME SYSTEMS AND INSPECTIONS
• Check HVAC System. Schedule a professional inspection of your airconditioning system to ensure that it runs efficiently during the hotter months. Replace filters and clean ducts if needed.
• Inspect Roof and Gutters. Make sure your roof is in good condition and your gutters are clean to avoid leaks when the spring rains come.
• Update or Add Insulation. Spring is an excellent time to check your attic and other spaces for proper insulation. Adding insulation can reduce energy bills during both hot and cold seasons.
ENERGY-EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENTS
• Replace Old Windows. If your windows are drafty or outdated, consider replacing them with energy-efficient models that will improve comfort and lower utility bills.
• Install a Programmable Thermostat. A smart thermostat can help regulate your home’ s temperature more efficiently, reducing heating and cooling costs.
