It’s April – time to break out that spring checklist and get ready for warm weather, fresh air and outdoor fun! If you take things one step at a time your chores will be done before you know and it will be time to chill and enjoy.
INSIDE SPRING CHECKLIST
When cleaning the rooms of your house start at the top and work your way down.
- Dust/clean ceiling fans and light fixtures
- Clean windows sills, frames and tracks
- Vacuum or dust shades and blinds, wash curtains
- Wash down baseboards and doors and dust for cobwebs around the room
- Disinfect door knobs, light switches and any handles
- Select any or all of the rooms and areas that need to be painted (see our blog post on Choosing Interior Colors!)
Add curb appeal while you’re sprucing up!
OUTSIDE SPRING CHECKLIST
Take a walk around your exterior and begin to make a list of things you want to accomplish through the spring and summer.
- Clean your downspouts and rain gutters
- Check your sprinklers and irrigation system
- Rake and clear away winter debris (check out our post on Curb Appeal!)
- Spruce up your mailbox
- Wash windows
- Inspect your property for areas that may encourage mosquitoes by getting rid of any standing water
- Paint your house! (we also have a post on Choosing Exterior Colors!)
FINISHING TOUCHES
Painting – either interior, exterior or both – is not only uplifting for the spirit, but protects the value of your home. It is a great way to update without the high cost and inconvenience of remodeling. You can take your home from drab to fab! Most painting can be completed within a 1-3 week period (depending on the size and age of your house and the prep work needed) and you don’t have to move out of your house! Of course, weather can affect the time it takes to complete an exterior paint project. ColaTownPainting is ready to help you with all your painting needs.
