Last Minute Winter Projects

Posted on March 19th, 2021 by Devine Bros

Spring isn’t far, and winter isn’t over just yet. Sometimes it helps to take advantage of the cooler temperatures to get some easy projects done. Or, sometimes, it’s best to beat spring with some last-minute maintenance projects. Either way, you’ve still got time before spring’s official weather and temperatures settle in, so begin preparing your list for what you need to get done as soon as possible! 

Maintenance Projects

It’s important to get your home prepared for spring, which might take a few maintenance projects here and there. They might not seem like that much fun, but they are essential to a smooth seasonal transition. We highly recommend you:

• Clear your gutters
• Seal your doors and windows with caulk 
• Change your furnace filter
• Get your air conditioning checked
• Invest in tools you’ll need for spring
• Inspect the roof for cracks or breaks that could lead to leaks
• Wash your windows
• Plan ahead for spring builds or construction
• Take advantage of the cool temperatures while you can for specific outdoor maintenance projects
• Consider automatic propane delivery

Creative Projects

It’s not just the everyday, monotonous project you need to keep in mind. Spring will be here before we know it, so there are plenty of creative ways to finish off winter with a bang! Some of our favorites include:

• Repaint your front door 
• Install new lighting 
• Add new door handles
• Move your indoor garden outside
• Spruce up your work area
• Declutter
• Paint a room to give it a new look
• Update your old faucets with new ones for a unique look
• Switch out some old carpets
• Change your bathroom theme
• Invest in contemporary outdoor furniture for the future

These ideas are just a few to get you started on the road from winter to spring. Seasonal changes aren’t always easy, but when you take the proper precautions and put in some extra effort, everything will go a lot more smoothly than you may realize.
