Agee & Johnson is bringing you monthly home maintenance tips to keep your home in top condition!<\/p>\n

May<\/h3>\n

Give The House A Bath
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

A good scrub will wash away winter grime. Close all windows and doors, and cover the ground and hedges with plastic sheeting. Then hit the house with the garden house and spot clean heavily soiled areas with TSP. Use detergent sparingly, as it can harm your plants.<\/p>\n

Paint the Exterior<\/strong><\/p>\n

Once your home's exterior is nice and clean, look for signs of peeling or chipping paint. You may need a touch-up or fresh coat. If you plan to hire a professional, schedule the job now so the work gets done by the end of the summer.<\/p>\n

Inspect And Refinish The Deck

Winter was likely hard on your deck, so it's time for a little TLC. Start by sweeping it clean and removing any leaves or debris from between boards. Look for loose board and tighten or replace the screws needed to keep them in place. Then sprinkle water on the deck's boards. If it beads up, your deck is in good shape. If it soaks in, you may want to consider resealing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
