5 Exterior Home Maintenance Projects for Summer

  1. Check sprinklers- Manually run through each zone and make necessary adjustments to avoid spraying the house or sidewalk, and replace any broken heads.
  2. Clean gutters- To prevent damage from heavy rains or thunderstorms, insure that water will be properly directed away from your foundation by cleaning out the gutters.
  3. Inspect hardscape- Look for damage to your driveway and walkways caused by the freeze-thaw cycle.
  4. Reseal wood surfaces- It’s recommended to restain and seal your wood deck, pergola and fence about every two years- inspect them for termites at the same time.
  5. Paint your home- If your home’s exterior paint needs refreshed or if you’re ready for a change, summer is a great season to get this job done.
