A New Year’s Resolution For Homeowners

New Year’s is here again, and we think it’s time resolutions started to include a little more home care. Commit with us this next year to take better care of the places we call home. After all, they take pretty good care of us. And as a bonus, the extra cleaning and maintenance you do in your home will also help keep the pests away. It’s a win-win. 

As you are setting your goals for next year, keep these ideas in mind.

Kitchen Cleaning

• Do dishes right after each meal is over
• Regularly organize the pantry
• Wipe down surfaces and sweep daily

Home Organization

• Declutter rooms and closets in the spring and fall
• Transfer anything stored in cardboard boxes to plastic bins
• Keep storage areas clean and organized

Home Maintenance

• Fill in cracks in the walls or foundation
• Powerwash the foundation in the spring & fall
• Make needed repairs as you see them

Yard Maintenance

• Keep the lawn free of fallen leaves and clutter
• Trim trees back from the house
• Mow and keep up the garden weekly or biweekly

To top off your home care resolution, sign up for our Home Protection Plan. We will come by quarterly to help get rid of any bugs and rodents that might be coming in. You can schedule your first visit by calling (855) 953-1976 or contacting us here.
