Spring Cleaning and Preparation
Lawn Care
Spring is the perfect time to revive your lawn. Consider aerating, fertilizing, and overseeding to ensure a lush, healthy green space.
Garden Revival
Prepare your garden beds by clearing debris, pruning, and adding fresh mulch. This sets the stage for vibrant blooms and productive vegetables.
Deck and Patio Inspection
Inspect your outdoor structures for any winter damage. Replace loose boards, clean and seal wood surfaces, and power wash for a fresh look.
Summer Maintenance
Pest Control
Implement pest control measures to keep unwanted visitors at bay. Regularly check for ant mounds, wasp nests, and other pests.
Outdoor Furniture Care
Maintain your outdoor furniture by cleaning and protecting it from UV rays and harsh weather conditions. Store cushions when not in use.
Fencing and Gate Check
Check your fencing and gates for stability and damage. Repair loose boards or hinges to ensure security and privacy.
Fall Cleanup
Leaf Removal
Keep your yard clear of fallen leaves to prevent mold and pests. Consider mulching or composting leaves for a sustainable solution.
Gutter Cleaning
Clear gutters and downspouts of debris to prevent clogs and water damage to your home’s foundation.
Exterior Painting and Sealing
Fall is an ideal time to touch up exterior paint and reseal wooden surfaces for protection against winter weather.
Winter Protection
Snow Removal
Invest in proper snow removal equipment to keep driveways and pathways safe. Shovel, salt, or use a snowblower as needed.

Store outdoor equipment, such as lawnmowers and grills, in a dry, sheltered space to prolong their lifespan.
