It is that time of year to do spring cleaning and some general maintenance to you home. I have listed below some helpful hints. Remember some maintenance such as cleaning your AC and Heating system requires special skills and should only be done by a licensed contractor. When in doubt hire a professional.
•1) Service and clean your AC before the hot days of summer get here.
•2) Clean the roof, gutters, downspouts and check for damage or deterioration.
•3) Check your attic for evidence of rodents, birds or moisture.
•4) Check the crawl space it should be clean, debris free and not have any standing water.
•5) Check the exterior of the home, make sure all wood siding is sealed and painted, caulk around windows as needed especially at the base of door jambs.
•6) Check that exterior ground faults are in working order. Just push the test button.
•7) Clean and check windows and screens in preparation for those days you will have windows open.
•8) Inspect all plumbing that is visible to make sure you do not have any leaks.
•9) Check your sprinkler system to make sure all heads operate and spray in the area's that you want them to.
•10) Check your smoke detectors and remember to change batteries at least once a year.
•11) Check your ac filter every time you pay your mortgage payment and replace it as needed. If you have a 60 day filter and in 30 days it is dirty replace it and change it to a 30 day filter. Why spend the money on a 60 day filter if it is only lasting 30 days.
