Spring Home Maintenance Checklist

Even though it doesn't look like it yet in the Okanagan, spring is officially only 6 days away. With Spring fast approaching we want to help make sure your home is spring ready. 

Here are a few spring maintenance tips to get your home over the winter blues: 
  • Test all detectors and install new batteries in smoke alarms & carbon monoxide detectors
  • Replace furnace filter
  • Schedule air conditioning inspection
  • Clean gutters and down-pipes, and make sure downspouts and splash pads drain away from walls and foundation
  • Inspect the roof visually from the ground if possible – if you have to go onto the roof, wear a safety harness or hire a contractor
  • Inspect caulking inside and out, and touch-up or replace where needed with products designed for the job
  • Clean windows and window tracks, and make sure weep holes are not blocked (including sliding door tracks – lubricate openers and track rollers with silicone spray).
  • Review flashing for damage or staining
  • Turn on the interior water supply to hose bibs and exterior faucets, and check for leaks

While completing your spring maintenance remember to always put safety first. Many home maintenance tasks are better left to the professionals so be sure to hire a contractor or technician if you are not able to handle the task on your own.

Happy Almost Spring Okanagan.
