Nashville Seasonal Home Maintenance Tips: Spring Edition!

Here’s what you should be doing this season to keep your home in the best condition:

• Inspect your home for termites. Termites swarm in the spring so this is a good time to call your local pest control company to inspect your home for these winged insects.

• Clean gutters and downspouts to make sure they are flowing properly. We recommend completing this task earlier in the season to prepare for the spring rainfall.
• Make sure to clean your wood-burning fireplace from a winter’s worth of hard work! We highly recommend you wear gloves to protect your hands and a tarp to cover the areas around the fireplace while you clean. Hire a chimney sweeping company to ensure your fireplace will be safe for use when it gets cold again.
• Schedule quarterly pest control to prevent spiders, ants, centipedes, etc.

*Adding reminders/alerts to your calendar is an easy way to help remind you when it’s time to perform these home maintenance checklist items!
