Spring Maintenance Checklist graphic

When you think spring cleaning your mind may go to downsizing your closet, covering some marks on the wall, or decluttering your space. While this is a great time to tackle your to-do list, don’t forget to do some home maintenance as well! Utilize the mild weather to secure your home and other assets in order to prevent future risks. We’ve compiled a Spring Maintenance Checklist to make it easy:

Inside Your Home

  • Check that your fire extinguisher has not expired and is in good condition.
  • Tune up your air conditioning unit and check for leaks before the hot season.
  • Check your dryer exhaust duct for lint buildup and clean out to prevent fires.
  • Inspect and change the batteries in your smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.
  • Consider adding or upgrading your security system. You could qualify for a discount on your policy!

Outside Your Home

  • Check your roof for any winter weather damage and hire professionals to make repairs.
  • Clean out your gutters so the April showers can flow freely.
  • Store your gas and propane for your grill or lawnmower in a safe, well-ventilated area.
  • Replace rotting boards on your deck and remove any loose or rusty nails.
  • Check your outside faucets for freeze damage by placing your thumb over the flowing water. If it stops, your pipe may be damaged.

Other Assets

  • Review your pool equipment like valves, pumps, and filters before opening. 
  • Replace your liner or acid-wash your concrete pool every 5-10 years.
  • Obtain your launch permit for your un-powered boats.
  • Fully inspect your watercraft before starting up for the season again – especially if it’s been docked all winter.
  • Ensure your classic car is registered before enjoying those top-down drives.
