Essential Spring Home Maintenance Checklist

A room-by-room checklist to inspect your home after winter and prevent costly repairs all year long. In this guide, we walk through practical steps you can use right away.

Exterior and Roof Inspection

Check shingles, gutters, downspouts, and grading around the foundation. Clear debris and ensure water flows away from the house.

HVAC and Plumbing Checks

Replace HVAC filters, test outdoor faucets for freeze damage, and inspect hose bibs and supply lines under sinks.

An hour of maintenance in spring prevents days of emergency repairs later.
