Your One-Stop Spring Cleaning Checklist

Inspect Your Property

Winter often takes its toll on your home and lawn. So, before you start on any projects, it’s important to first assess what needs to be done around the house. Start by checking for damage in the foundation or in your driveway. If necessary, pick up concrete filler or silicone caulk from our shop to seal any cracks before those cliché April showers hit. Next, clear away any debris that might have built up in your gutters and prepare them for rain. Finally, make sure the weather hasn’t damaged or stripped your windows and screens. However, if they have, bring them into Village Ace, and we’ll take care of any necessary repairs.

Revive That Lawn

With the weather getting warmer, so too is the ground outside. And that’s perfect—because now is the time to beat the weeds. Try using a product that both fertilizes your grass while also killing existing weeds like dandelions and preventing crabgrass germination. Now’s also the time to sharpen those lawn mower blades. Need help with either one or both? Not to worry. Just stop by Village Ace, and we’ll help you sort out your needs.

Highlight Your Gardens

Nothing makes your home pop like a beautiful garden. To build one, there are a few “must-haves.” Examples include a reliable shovel, rake, and wheelbarrow. But the right soil and mulch are also necessary to give your gardens and flower beds the pop they deserve. So, make sure any spring cleaning checklist includes those items.
