Preparing Your Home For Spring

Even though 6 more weeks of winter was predicted, spring will be here before we know it - thank goodness! For most homeowners, spring is an exciting time when they get to start opening up and preparing their home for the warmer months. During the cold and winter months, many maintenance tasks are neglected and your home is all sealed up. Mission Bay knows that from the inside to the exterior, getting your home ready for spring can seem like a daunting task. If you’re planning on getting your lakefront home at the Lake of the Ozarks ready for the warmer months over the next few weeks, it will help ease any stress to space out your maintenance projects. Check out some of our recommendations below!


Focus on the Exterior


The outside of our homes have to deal directly with the harsh weather throughout the winter months. Because of this, there is more wear and tear on the exterior than the interior. Do a quick walk around your home to examine the caulking around the doors and windows. You can also check open windows and doors to look at the weather stripping. It’s important to replace old caulk and replace the weather stripping. You should also inspect the roof for any broken or missing shingles or tiles. This is also a great time to clean out gutters and downspouts. Leaves, twigs, and other debris can collect and cause a backup in the gutters if and when it rains.

Landscaping Tips 


It may be a little too early to start planting new flowers and watering your lawn, but it isn’t too early to ensure that you will have green grass, your hoses will be ready, and your walkways are clean and clear. Now is a good time to replace old or cracked garden hoses, rake away dead leaves, and clear debris and twigs from walkways and planter beds. It's also a great time to start planning out your spring landscaping ideas. When the weather starts to warm up, you should pressure wash concrete and paver areas that have become dirty.

Turn Your Attention To The Indoors 


You should have your HVAC system serviced twice a year. Those two times include spring and fall. You want to have routine maintenance done during these two seasons because it’s right before any harsh climate changes take place. You should also change the air filter in your system.

Spring Cleaning


Now is a great time to clean your windows both inside and outside. You may be surprised how much more natural light comes through your windows once they have been cleaned. You should also clean and dust ceiling fans, and clean out your fireplace if you used it during the winter months. Test your emergency systems in your home. Things like smoke alarms, carbon monoxide alarms, your home alarm, and fire extinguisher should be checked.

Spring Is On Its Way


Spring is just around the corner, and Mission Bay wants to make sure that you are ahead of the game with getting your lakefront home at the Lake of the Ozarks ready for the warmer weather. Once the warm weather rolls around, time will be spent outdoors and out on the Lake, as it should be, so it’s important to get your spring maintenance done early!
