Birds are chirping, the sun is shining, and a fresh layer of green has covered New England—finally spring is upon us! When it comes to homekeeping, spring is an ideal time to assess how a residence has fared during hard winter months. The old adage is true—an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure—and spring cleaning is the preventative maintenance a home needs in order to avoid headaches in the future. Both inside and out, there are important steps to take and key places to look for signs of wear.

The process of spring cleaning needn’t be arduous; many of our clients choose to work with property management companies to evaluate and care for these critical items. If you’re handling your own spring cleaning, however, we hope these suggestions will provide some guidance and direction to make the job less overwhelming.

If spring cleaning has you considering a complete property overhaul, feel free to contact us to learn how we might approach your home. In the interim, we invite you to find meaningful inspiration in our portfolio. Here’s to a sparkling summer season ahead!
