Spring Cleanup Your Property: Checklist


March 30, 2023


Spring is the perfect time for a thorough cleanup of your property! A fresh start to the new season can work wonders for your property’s appearance, health, and functionality. 

From the property maintenance team at Ambrosio Landscape Solutions, here’s a checklist for homeowners to help you with your spring property cleanup:

1. Clean gutters and downspouts.

Remove debris, leaves, and twigs from your gutter system and downspouts to avoid water damage caused by clogged gutters.

2. Inspect your roof.

Inspect your roof for any damage or leaks. Look for missing shingles or cracked gaps and get them repaired immediately.

3. Trim trees and shrubs.

Remove any dead or damaged branches from trees and shrubs to prevent them from falling onto your property or damaging utility lines.

4. Remove leaves and debris.

Remove leaves, twigs, and other debris from lawn or garden spaces to help the soil breathe and allow proper water and nutrient absorption.

5. Clear out your garage and shed.

Organize your garage and shed by removing clutter and any items you no longer use. This is also the perfect time to work on any refurbishing projects for things worth keeping.

6. Inspect and repair fences and gates.

Inspect fences and gates for any damage or wear and tear, and repair or replace any posts or panels that need attention.

7. Pressure wash exterior surfaces.

Pressure wash exterior walls, decks, patios, or driveways to remove dirt and grime and restore your property’s surface to a clean and shiny state.

8. Pest control.

Spring is the time when pests begin to emerge. Check your property for signs of infestation and take action to eliminate or discourage pests from entering your property.

9. Check exterior lighting.

Check your property’s lighting fixtures, especially those in hard-to-reach places, to ensure they still function properly.

10. Lawn and garden maintenance.

Mow your lawn, pull weeds, and trim shrubs to maintain a healthy and aesthetically pleasing lawn and garden.
