Summer Home Maintenance

Each season calls for its own home maintenance chores to keep your home in the best shape possible! As it warms up outside - here are a few things to be doing inside!

1. Check all smoke detectors to make sure they are working properly and change batteries if it's been several months since doing so.
2. Clean all ceiling fans to remove dust and debris.
3. Wash and shine windows to take advantage of increased hours of sunlight.
4. With more activity outdoors - keep floors clean by placing doormats inside and outside of all exterior doors.
5. Going to be grilling? Make sure your grill is in good working order, clean and has a full tank of gas if necessary.

Don't forget your yard! Make sure all yard equipment is clean and sharpened. Think about laying mulch to help keep in moisture and keep out weeds. Come up with a watering schedule to keep your lawn looking great while using the least amount of water - think a.m. and p.m. waterings.
