The Spring Checklist

Spring has officially arrived! That means one thing- it’s time to tackle all the home improvement projects that you put off or couldn’t do during winter. Wright Building Center has put together a list of projects to tackle this spring!

Project #1- Work on your deck

Winter weather can be hard on your deck, so before you start using your deck regularly for the season, give it a quick run-through and make sure that everything is still looking good. Check for loose, warped, or damaged boards, rusty and loose nails, and make sure that your railings are secure. And, if necessary, reseal and restain your deck so that it is looking its best!

Project #2- Inspect your doors and windows

Early spring is the perfect time to fix and replace the screens on your windows and doors. This will help to keep the bugs as they emerge for the season. Additionally, take advantage of the more mild spring weather and give your windows a wash instead of doing it during the heat of summer. 

Project #3- Up your landscaping game

Spring is the perfect time to start cleaning up your landscaping. Trim up overgrown bushes and plants and start work on your flowerbeds, getting them spruced up and ready for new plants and flowers. Start your lawn care now to make sure that it looks nice and ready for the summer. And, last but not least, if you want to grow vegetables, prep your garden bed and get it ready for planting!
