Spring-Cleaning is Not Just for Indoors


Spring has sprung! It is time to put away your hot coco mug and pull out your flip-flops. This also means it is time to clean the “winter blues” off of your home. CentralTexas is a magical place to live whether you lived here your entire life or are just buying a new home here.  Most residents take pride in keeping the beauty of the exterior of their homes just as immaculate as the interiors. Therefore, what could be a better time than a nice spring day to clean away the drab winter funk from your home?

Windows – During the colder winter months, no one wants to stand outside and freeze just to clean the windows. Now is the perfect time to pull out the garden hose to spray off the last three or four month’s buildup of dirt and grime that has accumulated on the windows. This will help your home look sparkling from the outside and brighten it up on the inside.

Gutters – Again, this is not a fun winter chore and is usually put off. Be sure you don’t skip this one during your spring-cleaning. Clogged gutters not only look bad, they are there to serve the purpose of keeping water away from your home. No one wants to deal with foundation issues.

Fence – Having your home in Bryan CollegeStation means you most likely have a wonderful backyard for you and your family to spend time together. This also means now is the time to check your fence for wear and rot; even chain link fencing needs a good inspection for rust or damage.

Siding and Decking – If your home has either, you will want to give them a good cleaning to wash away the winter grime. The best way to do this is with a power sprayer. If you do not own one, they are readily available for rent at many home improvement or hardware stores.


A clean house is a happy home! And spring is one of the best times to get it done. After the long dreary winter months, feel anew by making your home fresh with a good deep spring-cleaning. Remember how great it feels to come home to a sparkling home inside and out.
